We say we want individuality-
Apple technology, Google, and Glee
Facebook, Texting, and yet we can't see
The sameness we created to be
Making us judgmental, lazy
and whores
Obsessed with being bores
Forming to societies mold
Plastic surgery, Twilight
and tights
Take drugs and drink
Smoke weed but don't think
Flirt, and whip your hair
But be yourself? Don't dare.
We're formed by filled in circles
Our status, Our tweet
For our true selves we cannot meet
Until we dive and swim away
From society today.
