Man vs. Society
James Aug 2014
The mind of a man
Is not always smart
In the mind of society

The feelings of a man
Must always be tough
In the mind of society

The body of a man
Must be muscular and chiseled
In the mind of society

The mind of society
Is always verbose with standards
In the mind of a man

I've never found words
Inside my own head
To make sense of our heartbreak

You cross my mind a lot,
Still,
And I don't know why

Perhaps in another life
With smarter made decisions
Our burning desires would be tamed

But we are what we are,
Still,
And I don't know why

I don't know whether
To love or forget
Because you filled me with love

We tore ourselves apart,
Still,
I miss you.
