Change

"Change yourself," they say

Change the way you smile

Change the way you talk

Change the way you eat

 Change the way you look

Change the way you live

Just change everything about you

But why?

Why do I need to change?

What does it do for me?

Should I stop smiling?

Should I stop talking?

Should I stop eating?

Should I mark up my body to fit your style?

SHOULD I STOP LIVING?

Why do you hate what is different so much?

Why do you fight for change at the wrong time for the wrong reason?

WHY DO YOU CHANGE SO MUCH?

Why won't you answer me?

Why won't you look at me?

Am I that disgusting to you?

What is so wrong 

why...

Why...

WHy.......

WHY..............................

WHY....WHY....WHY....

WHY...............................................

STOP!!!!!

I give up

This is too much

I feel so overwhelmed by your change

So why don't I make your dreams come true

I will change

I will stop smiling

I will stop talking

I will stop eating

I will mark up my body to fit you change

I will stop breathing!

Are you happy now?

ARE YOU HAPPY THAT YOU HAVE ROBBED ME OF THE VERY THING THAT MADE ME WHOLE?

Of course. You are!

I kiss the world farewell, to emerg anew

But first,

Do you at least have anything to say?

Yes

YEs

YES

what is it you have to say

"CHANGE," they screamed.

Yeah, sure 

CHANGE!!!!
