Know Your Place

by WrittenTherapy

Paint by number your colors just like everyone else. But do not color outside the lines. There's no place for extraordinary. Shove the clay of yourself into a mold that doesn't fit. But do not dare look for another one. There's no place for individuality. Write out the story of your cliché life just like all the others. But do not make any revisions. There's no room for originality.
