No Definition for Mankind

Location

All those pictures

they reflect who I want to be;

what I want to be.

That is also a part of me,

but it's not all of me.

This skin, this face,

it's what I have to to work with,

But I wish we could see more,

be more, instead of trying harder

to be less.

We are not that and we are not this,

but people label everything

make it easier to deal with.

Give it up,

walk around without a definition

head held high

no longer overrating

the words that were written
