Conforming Individuality
The individuality is crossed between
the lines of the superficiality.
The making of a human comes to be
The caring of the parent
And also their hypocrisy.
The child is born and raised though
The real question is does it really learn?
Their stride to not conform is burned
Similar to that of a house catching fire
And no longer being a home.
The child soon grows older and urns
Not for what was burned to the ground
But for what could have been really learned.
Newton’s laws are important but already explored
And every child wants to be torn on the break of discovery
But the narrow mind of societies conformities
Rarely allow a child to understand
To understand how real things are that they feel,
Thus we must say
We are all one individual
conformed to the same principles.
