So, I have no life?
According to whom?
To you?
Well let me tell you a little something
I HAVE a life…
It’s mine.
I love it.
Every second.

I have friends.
I do…
But they don’t rule me
They don’t tell me who I am
How I should act
What I should wear
How I should think

I decide how I spend my time
How I live my life.
YOU choose to conform
To be just like everyone else
Your priorities…
Your morals…
They are not your own.
They are society’s.
They are fickle.
You do just what you are told to do
To think
And how to act

Don’t tell me I have no life.
I have MY life.
I chose it.
Not you.

A life without love…is no life at all.
