I once thought that to be happy in life was to be like the crowd.
How sad it is that so many of us think that this is the way to live life.
Not one thing comes to mind about what we can gain from this,
but so much I see as lost.
How much the world loses when two people are so much alike, but so fake.
I followed this lead, for this is what us young ladies are taught.
To be what the world wants,
do they not want individuals?
I feel so alone now,
yet my words keep me company.
No matter how alone I feel,
nothing can compare to the pain I suffered with my cliques.
I'll never be what the world of fashion and fame wants,
but I will be what the world of individuals will want.
What I want.
