POETRY – PHILOSOPHY


Standing Alone

To be completely honest and true, is a lonely and difficult role indeed,
Where one’s mere presence, is more than enough to create tension and negativity,
Amongst the majority of people, who must be I guess just generally dishonest,
In some form or other, whether by calculated choice or perceived necessity.
For take the easy way out and go with the flow, so as to not to rock the boat,
Are attitudes that make it very difficult, to maintain a true and unwavering position,
Going against the tide, without isolating oneself completely from the general mass,
Which makes this stance, a real test of individual metal and character building.
