On Being Different


Divergent



Many claim they are thriving
But to me they're all lying
Their true crave is for living
But we are all slowly dying

How come no one realizes?
How come no one cares?
No one is truly happy
When they work for someone else

Work is just annoying
And there are no exceptions
There are only misconceptions
Of what clearly is a deception

In this world of constant treason
The same is what I see
I'm divergent for a reason
And that I rather be

I'm not a trend follower
There are enough people for that
I'm rather a creator
The CEO of an enterprise

When I think of my profession
I look up to the sky
And value how I actually
Get to live this life.
