change poetry society

Society dictates who we are supposed to be. Everyone wants to be the best version of themselves, but without realising it we are fulfilling society's definition of perfection. Society has changed. We are no longer allowed to be erroneous and free to be ourselves. We change our behaviour and appearance to meet the demands of a social environment. Ironically we are the ones who makes up society so we should all accept each other and be curious instead of being judgmental.

The poem is based on society and how it has evolved with regards to the influences it has on us individually and collectively. The generation of today perhaps feels suicidal, depressed, bitterness and feelings of hopelessness. We are glued into social media and are more concerned about looking "perfect" than taking time out of our day to be there for the people who truly cares about us. Society is supposed to serve as a strong support system in life and we all are supposed to be a support system for each other.All Rights Reserved

Lovesick; but love struck by Hayden525909

Thinking you've found the love of your life; only to realize they hurt you because you belong with someone else entirely. Me too. Things always start great; but can end in so many different ways at the same time. (Cover is just me btw)

The Days With No Sun by hello-no-one

Sometimes we fear truth over reality. But things get dark and heavy and we play the blame game. We end up hurting others or ourselves even. We don't think before we act or we don't say before we do. This is the evolution of my madness. A cluster of rants and thoughts and poems for you guys. Everything is written how I wanted it to be rants will be long with few pauses and there will be mistakes I might have skipped over. Aha. Poems at the beginning from when I was 15 years old to now when Im 18. Truly a visual of my writing evolution. Edited by @ChemicalStarling who writes a lot but never posts! Read on, loves. I'll see you on the other side...

The Bare Necessaties by CandidCosmic

There's a lot of things wrong with this place. This world. I never really understood it. Never understood why my mom said, "You're gonna change the world someday." Maybe it was better when i didn't understand that. Knowing too much can always get you into trouble. Something i never wanted, something i never asked for....but here we are...

METAMORPHOSIS by DammyOludare

If you have to take drastic action to solve a problem, you have to do something basic and extreme to solve it. **** The scientific term metamorphosis isn't something that pertains to physical change alone. It goes deeper than that. "Like how deep?" You might be wondering. Well, it can go in immensely deep. To the point were...A person. One you've grown to know right from childhood. For practically ALL YOUR LIFE. Probably as well as the back of your hand. To seem...entirely different! From what they used to be. Or rather, who you thought they truly were. Then again! I believe it only goes to show us the full spectrum of human behavior. It reveals something quietly laiden within ourselves. Our TRUE selves. So reason deeply, and tell me, What do you believe? **** "Er..I believe that...the term, holds a certain kind of eminence. N'that, whomever we are, be us young or old, everyone, everywhere! is susceptible to equal, unparalleled change! Besides, don't the most beautiful things come from the most unlikely places?" **** Everyone has their own views and opinions. Still, they all seem to forget the most important thing. They forget that CHANGES can be for good, AND for bad. It can bring the beautiful AND the ugly. It can pave a path of light OR darkness. Just because a chrysalis is breaking open, that doesn't mean a magical butterfly is gonna come fluttering out! These people FORGET! That moths? They go through the same stages too. But you? Do you believe people do change? Or are you under the impression that they don't? Or...is it the changes people can go through that is hard to believe? Don't worry, you only have to follow the stages accordingly. ....ARE YOU READY?

A Weight off My Mind - Time to Live by HazelUrquhart

Regardless of size, putting your life on hold until you reach that perfect weight, does no one any good. This will be my collection of poems reflecting on societies obsession with weight and size and the effect this has on us and how we can change this. We shouldn't be allowing it to determine whether we should be happy, successful or loved. Enough is enough. Start living. You deserve it all now. I give thanks to anyone who reads this collection, it's appreciated with all my heart and if you also happen to hit the little vote button, you have my eternal gratitude ❤️.

The Five Stages of Transition: From deception to liberty by TimosKamvysis

The miracle is present, next to and within you. The miracle is you. When you write poetry you hide in a bottle a message written on paper. Then you ship it in the ocean and you let it travel across the world. One day, somebody may graciously find it below a steep rock on the beach and be curious enough to open it. Then he will read the message enclosed. For poetry time is irrelevant and to be specific this poetry has defied time and difficulties. The first chapter 'Crash the Idols' is a sociological approach in the poetry of the dogma, VERITAS (Latin meaning of truth), and images that society encourages people to believe. Are these true, do they have any meaning at all? Or they are just hallucinations of the society of consumption? The second chapter 'The transformations of Vishnu' is a reference to the changes of Vishnu into different forms and existences according to Indian scripts. We are subject to a continuous and ruthless change, since the time we were born. This change is considered a determining factor of survivorship. The 'Myth story of an adventurer' is wandering in the ascetic communities of Mount Athos with a history of more than 1000 years. The incessant seeking of light and freedom is a driving force of interpreting modern life with a more charismatic byzantine approach, in regards to philosophy and theology. 'Dialogues of Despair' is a modern song of songs, where contradictory powers clash and the winner is thirst. Thirst for life and Thirst for Knowledge. Thirst of Love and Thirst for Sacrifice. 'The Silent Time of mysticism' is about the inexplicable echo of our memories, our faith, our emotions, and death right in the corner. The understanding of our Being is an understanding of the Collective Being and contribution to that.

Someone Else by onikatanyamarajjx

A young girl grows up too fast and with the wrong people.

Deadly - Poetry by wall_flower872

/Feel free to kill me anytime. Isn't that what you were made for?/

The Stray Café by NineLivesKyubi

There are two kinds of people in this world, normal people like you and me, and the Strays that are ridiculed because they're not fully human. I'd like to think why we aren't treated the same, but I'm just a normal human girl. What can a person like me do to change something as big as the status of Strays in society? Well, when your father runs a cafè that's a bit understaffed, sometimes you can get desperate. Any song lyrics or quotes that I use in this book that aren't my own are credited at the end of the chapter that they are featured in if I don't directly recognize it in the story itself. I highly recommend that you check out their work if it appeals to you. NOTE: I have discontinued writing this story, though I will make an edited second version. This version will remain up, so feel free to read as you like, but I will not be posting new parts for this.
