Why do you
Care?
Why would you
Care?
What difference
Does it make?
How have you made
The world
A better place
To live
By belittling
Yourself
For their sake?
Denying love
For honor
Or duty?
To what?
For whom?
Throwing away
Your dreams
For something
Practical?
Paying the bills
At some
Hourly degrading
Lesser thing
Than you
Were meant for?
Willing to sell out
So your kids
Can learn
They should
Just shut up
Keep their head low
And hope
To be as
Barely adequate
As you
Are?
The judgments
Of elders
Are the fears
Of centuries
Passed down,
Hatreds carefully
Instructed
To unsuspecting
Children.
You were once
That child.
And what other
People
Think,
Is not so nearly
As important
As what
They have
Constructed
For you
To think
About yourself.
Yes.
Now its
Sinking in huh?
You,
Yourself,
Have become
The perpetuator
The perpetrator
Of what other
People think
Speaks through
Your words,
Tempers your
Own thoughts
Until so
Very little
Is actually
Your own.
Unless.
Until.
You awaken
From this
Dream of lies
Woven for
Your own good,
Called
Control.
Realize,
That you
Are Divine,
A source
For the Eternal
All.
Awaken to
The truth
Of who you
Are…
Just as much
A child of god
As any other
That has come
Before you,
And now
Have a choice
To place
Different thoughts
Into those
Future children
Than was
Given
You.
