Society dictates
How it irritates
They claim they know
What I can and cannot do
They say they know
What I should and should not have
they even decide
Who I should and should not be?!
Everyday they strip me
With their haughty eyes
Tagging me
Judging me
Confining me
C’mon Society
What’s wrong with you?
As I questioned,
I realized
Society is you
My friends
Society is you
My family
Society is me
‘Tis therefore under our control
We can change if we choose
We can make it better
If we realize
The universe is ample enough
For us all to flourish
In our unique unlimited selves
Let’s set ourselves free
Let’s delight in our diversity
Let’s delight in our individuality
As society dictates
Let’s hesitate
Live and let live
Be and let be
On the other side of the divide
As society dictates
What you can and cannot do
What you should and should not have
Who you should and should not be.
Hesitate.
Realize your place in the universe is
Guaranteed,
Realize you are your own gravity
Your rise, your fall
Answers only to your call.
Cling onto your true self-worth
Uncover the sea of possibilities
Meandering within you
Then cruise in the magic of life with
The greatest in history
As you realize that
The stream of supremacy
Inscribed within you
Surpasses
The perceived ocean of power
That’s in the outside world.
Yes hun’
You can do, have, be
Anything you set your mind to
So be true to your core
Your heart, your soul
And as society dictates
Hesitate.
Don’t just imitate
Meditate.
Find you, Free you, Be you.

Writer Profile
Malkia Affiah
In my writing, I yearn to reward my feelings, my thoughts, my understanding, my relevance and my nowness, with the gift of eternity wrapped in simplicity and delivered by an army of alive emotions under the command of their master, humanity.
By you experiencing my pieces, I 'm one with this desire and for that I give thanks. A million bows for exploring my work.
