Nothing Like Normality Poem by What Iff

Nothing Like Normality



who says whats real
who says whats OK
who says what we feel
is supposed to be that way

when someone goes 'insain'
who says their not realising the reality
who says when you feel all that pain.
your not facing NORMALITY.

when you feel like your not natural
and everyones pressuring you
and to them your just not normal
you hate them for hurting you

and although your burning inside
with the torment of your sanity
your finding it harder to hide
your CRAVING their 'normality'.

Scottish shrink R.D. Laing (he's in Wikipedia) believed that mental illness was actually a higher level of awareness. BTW- interesting poem

It sucks that society tells us what we should wear, look like, act like, and it is different in every culture to boot. If one doesn't fit the 'NORM' then they are shunned...I'll use my name now...I would rather be...Free 2 be me u c: O)
