Society: The Keepers of Society [POEMS]

If I had a choice,

I would backpack

See the sights,

Swim the oceans,

Fly the skies,

Touch the moon,

If I had a choice….

Do I have a choice?

To not stay grounded,

Not work in the correct job,

Not marry one you choose,

Not be hounded by your moralities,

Not conform to your norms,

Do I have a choice?

I made you,

And now you stalk me.

I told you to protect my like,

And now you attack me.

I could change you,

But I am bound by the rules I created.

Oh society! Give me the choice.
