Words Of An Idle Mind

Idol v/s Ideal (poem)

I'm going to be better today. I'll do what I want, what I deserve, overcoming my anxiety an-

PFFT! WHAT? YOU NEED TO BE THE BEST! BEST AT BEING THE IDOL FOR SOCIETY.

But i don't want to be! I don't want to be an epitome that every other child has to struggle to be compared to.

YOUR WISHES DON'T MATTER WHEN YOU HAVE TALENTS POSSESSED BY FEW!

But my talents fail the the threshold you set for me.

EVEN IF IT KILLS YOUR ESTEEM, YOU'LL BE WHAT YOU ARE MEANT TO BE.

I'll stop my breath and make you suffer from breathlessness!

TRY IF YOU MIGHT, BUT YOU KNOW YOU'LL SURVIVE YOUR RECKLESSNESS.

I'll idle away than become an idol, if i don't get to be my ideal.

YOU'LL ROT IN REALITY IF YOU DON'T ABANDON THIS FANTASY UNREAL.

Why should I listen to you? Why should I be meek? Why should I be put down? Who. Are. You?

WHY SHOULD YOU BE HEARD? WHY SHOULD YOU BE STRONG? WHY SHOULD YOU EMERGE? WHO. ARE. YOU?

I'm going to fight you, even if I struggle and I'll win!

IT'S JUST YOU AND YOUR DREAMS AT POLAR EXTREMES, AND THE WORLD IN BETWEEN.

You see, I let you enjoy the power for awile, now it's time i get back behind the wheel.

YOU ARE JUST BROKEN GLASS, NOT HARD ROCK OR STEEL.

This glass will pierce and bleed you dry and you won't even have time to say goodbye.

AHH! SAVE ME! I'M OH-SO-SCARED OF YOUR LIE!

Now you can chatter away all you want, the unmute button will be unfixed.

...

I'd love to forever have your company, since now, by silence you've been kissed.

So...

This was something really out of the box that i tried for the first time.

Did you find it interesting (the style, the story, the poetry, etc.)?
