Just added a video of myself reciting this on Youtube, which has been a fear of mine. If you have an extra moment please check out my first poem video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=638Y9GFvYgI
I Am Not Relative
I Am Not Relative
Look into my eyes,
Not at the lies
Beyond this disguise
Past the mask the multitude wears
That is conformity everyone shares
I am not relative
I am unique
Because of what I think
Thoughts and feelings that are my own
Bundled together as ideas, not shown
What makes you, you
Is not what makes me, me
So why think of people relatively
Not at the lies
Beyond this disguise
Past the mask the multitude wears
That is conformity everyone shares
I am not relative
I am unique
Because of what I think
Thoughts and feelings that are my own
Bundled together as ideas, not shown
What makes you, you
Is not what makes me, me
So why think of people relatively
