I need myself back
I've been to virulent places
Beyond my choices
Just so that I can please the pack

I need myself back
I've changed my hair,shoes,clothes, food
And went loose all in the name of the pack

When did the statutes printed in my mind get erased
The conscience that I used to have went blank

Oh how I need myself back
I dont know how I got side tracked
Coz being part of the pack has made me lose tact
I have wondered into a world that has me sacked
I feel trapped
All because of the pack

But now I realise that joining the pack
Was a threat to myself
So I need myself back
I want my sense back

Ps Radebe.
I wrote this poem coz of the way I feel
Its like i have given into other peoples demands & forgotten about my own, i just thought i should share it, maybe someone can relate
