Chained By Labels
I wonder if the weight of labels of how and who you should be, is something that we carry without even noticing. If you choose to be navigate without labels; that doesn't give you an escape from the labels others may attach to you. After all, we have been labelled from the day we enter this world; so have we just adjusted? Who knows.
I've become so accustom to the shackles,
That I wonder if its a self imposed strain,
Or an extended muscle,
That no longer feels the weight,
Of the world that dictates,
How and where you should be placed.
