This is my first Verse First poem. Hope you all enjoy! It's called:
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
