This symbol is for truth,
yet still I'm searching.
The future is unknown,
Yet I still stand for something.
Though the journey does not stop,
I'd give it all up for just a taste.
A loving charm of a sweetened faith,
even if inside it I blissfully waste.
I.
Am a voice
I.
Have nothing to say.
I.
Am a leader.
I.
Throw it all away.
I.
Go against you.
I against the established.
But I live here too.
Stand for something,
Anything.
Freedom?
Choice?
Growth?
Basic rights?
Is there more than this?
I wonder.
