They

July 29, 2013

They always has an opinion formulating what's wrong or right They utter words that damage hearts destroy dreams and alter lives

people scared to be themselves lost identities in words of They afraid to live afraid to shine afraid to break out of They's line

living in lies and holding secrets wearing fabricated smiles to please They releasing genuine cries to ease pain leading more of the world to be vain

They don't know who they are with words so powerful constructing who we are eternally craving attention

ignore what They says be strong face your fears stay true to you

<p>This poem was insprired by all the stories we hear in the media of young girls and boys conforming to what the world says they should be. I say forget the media and forget what They say (whoever your they is), stand up for yourself, love who you are, and embrace what makes you different!</p>
