going against people’s beliefs
it’s like pushing up against the wind
defying everyone takes courage
standing your own ground
is not easy
especially when that same ground
keeps getting smaller and smaller
until you feel like you’re standing on the head
of a pin with one foot up in the air
but you don’t care
because standing in this way
is making a statement to all
and a commitment
to yourself
