~¤ Conformity ¤~ Each generation Seeking Identity Energy and freedom of Youth Torn apart by Confusion Trying to Define Self In terms Other than Those Before Yet we Always Seem to Drift back Into Old Ways Losing that Innocence Rebellion At the forge of Reality Broken by Conformity It's a wonder Anything New Ever evolves When so many Can only think of Fitting in "Every body has their destiny... I'LL CHOOSE MY OWN ~Hatebreed~ |

*slaps IsGona five* Amen mah brotha!! Anyway this is completely true, i agree with all of you. I fit in with everything you all say. Whatever you all say, i agree with. ![]() I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |

Great poem! I truly agree. Although I catch myself buying into the conformist ways on occasion, I try to stay away. Awesome poem! |

ahh, pure brilliance i have to agree with you on this one look at my quote, nothing is worse than a fake person great post ~JDR "Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation." -Oscar Wilde |

IsGona: Ohhh YES!! I can totally identify with this piece. I am sick to death of the same conformists I have to deal with everyday. Wouldn't it be nice if they could get a backbone and stand up for themselves... ~AF~ "Poetry is the language in which man explores his own amazement." Christopher Fry |

Most of us know this one well, it would be great if the world didn't conform to 3 or 4 images, but they do. People care too much about it... I am at the stage in my life where I don't want to fit in... I want to be different to everybody else... I want to be me, and I am, completely... I am different, strange and weird in my own little ways!! GREAT POEM!! Melz!! Dont believe what ur eyes r telling u they only show limitation. Look with ur understanding, find out what u already know & u will see the way to fly |
