Weak


The definition of weak is self proclaimed.

Who are you to decide how far I can push myself

To be

Extraordinary; out of the ordinary, but, what is ordinary?

Who decides what's normal? Should I decide? Should you?

We are all people.

Imperfect people.

If we let society define what you, what I, what we can do 

As people we have failed each other by not offering the world something new;

By not seizing the opportunity to shine as bright as the sun on a cloudless day.

We have let society mold us and choose which of us are strong and who are

Weak.
