By donnamarie

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

assign the role for this girl. assigne her role in this world. makes her one forces her many loses herself but pleases the others cheats herself because she plays by their rules. committing no sins, she'll never be happy. they mold her and fashion her to them. she is many. she wants to be one. elusive are her dreams, but theirs are close at hand. she's lived their lives, now she wants to begin hers. fulfillment for them; emptiness is hers. saved by her enemy. conformity equals acceptance. misplaced by their hand. governed by their word. she strives for herself and yearns for a soul. she is many. she wants to be one.
