Society tries to conform us to one another.

Pushing us to be alike

Through movies and media.

Teaching us how to act and dress

And judging if we disobey.

This, this is what I have to say,

If we all just

STOP!

Stop following the norms

And stop trying to conform,

Maybe, just maybe

Everyone will be ecstatic.

Happy with ourselves

And with everyone around us.

Delighted with the change

Because this type of happiness

Shouldn’t be so strange.

Be you -

Help undo

What society has instilled in us.

When I was writing this piece, I wanted to somehow influence people to go against what society tells us to do. We are so influenced by the media that we can perceive it
