What am I? What should I let define me? Do i stand for a cause? Am I polite or am I crass? Am I queen or of a poor class? Do I wear pants or do I wear a dress? In the brackets of conventions, Lacking enthusiasm and convictions, I soon started losing myself, In the sea of confusions. As i grew, these bracket grew larger, "Atheism is not a choice, go meet a minister" The end of the tunnel looked brighter from afar the journey is what made me a sadist and a sinister Part of a big propaganda is what i became oblivious of what had happened and what was to come little beads of joy, yes I did collect them only to lose, oh boy ! what a shame Its all a scam, the rebel shouted I should have stopped my journey and got myself in his team recruited It was not a journey it was but a race "hahaha eternal optimist?", the darkness laughed at my face the shadows grabbed everything I had they were my friends I thought, "like my mom and dad" oh the days have gone by and here I sit sad and shy identity was lost in the tunnel of sea with weeds dry all is lost I weep and cry what am I? what should I let define me? Is it the shady past of which I was only a participant or should it be my future of which I am ignorant?
