Did you ever notice how our society encourages certain emotions and how others are taboo? Think about it sometime.
You're allowed to be angry
but when you're sad, all you hear is "Get over it!".
You're supposed to be serious
but when you're silly, they tell you "Grow up!".
It's accepted to love
but being lovesick - no no!
Sure you can be in love
but possessive and jealous - no way!
Reflecting alright
but self-pity is never an option - "C'mon, get your act together!".
Be creative
but if you are not, means you just didn't try hard enough.
It's alright to be aggressive
but the shy people will just lose out.
Even children are told:
"Defend yourself when they tease you or else you won't get very far!".
Being honest, yes please,
but are they sure they can deal with the truth?
Hey, be good, save the world, don't be selfish
but where to begin?
