Do What You Want

You could know everything 
and still know nothing 
lost inside a circumstance 
where they choke you out 
make you listen and think 
they ask you what you know 
and now it is as if what was 
is no longer because it 
no longer matters when 
hands wrap themselves 
around your neck as you 
struggle with the question
the situation the people 
and yourself 
Are you ready to face them?
When reality shifts and you 
realize that you want the
unachievable unattainable 
and undesirable
That is, in the eyes of everyone
but yourself
Express, detest, unleash, release
the pain and the pressure for the 
passion and the glory 
Even if that means be unconventional 
Even if that means be unreasonable 
Even if that means be unabsorbent 
Because everything that they know 
and tell you is irrelevant in a world 
where you exist inside only one life.
It is your life and the mind that coexists
within the body and the soul that must be 
outspoken and decide.
