Our true thoughts are enclosed inside our own little sanctuary. They seem safer there, than out into the world, where our opinions can be agreed with and our questions can finally be answered. We'd be shot down on the spot if we go against what society wants us to think Can't shine brighter than others. Always be yourself- society No, no. Not like that Well, then. My bad. We are taught to think critically and embrace our intellectual minds. So when we dance like no one is watching, Write like there are no boundaries, Fall in love indiscriminately and wholeheartedly, And riot against society's guidelines, Why do people act like they never saw it coming? Teachers and motivational speakers of today aren't just enlightening the minds of so many young and promising people. They're creating an army
