Plastic

A poem about my take on today's society.

I never thought the world would be this cruel.

So fake.

So plastic.

As a little girl I thought the world was perfect.

So real.

So nice.

But as I grew, I learned.

Wishes don't always come true.

You can't be yourself.

Society judges.

And I keep saying to myself...

Don't be fake or plastic.

Be real and nice.

Don't listen to them,

those demons in this polluted world.

Listen to yourself.
