We do not become
shameful people,
When we earn
society's disapproval;
Nor do we become good people
When society approves our actions.
We only become a carbon copy of what society wants us to be,
when we gain its approval
And a copy of what
It doesn't want us to be
when we gain its disapproval.
In reality,
we are not carbon copies
or even carbon;
We are unique complex compounds of our own kind
And we listen
to the calling of our souls
Some parts of us are readily approved by society,
Other parts are not;
that's alright with us.
Society is all about balance.
Its changes its direction to achieve equilibrium amidst
turmoil
And one day,
it will welcome us
to lead it forward
For we were brave enough
to be ourselves
And we inspire that courage
in others.
We don't do this for popularity
Or to win any gold
We do this because its our truth
The truth of our soul.
We consciously choose to be
true to our authentic selves
And we can't be put
into defined boxes,
Since we continuously
evolve into new forms.
Until we are called to lead,
We go find our tribes
And heighten our vibes
For the Universe is our home
And we are
wanderers in our rooms.
