Pressure

As I grow older
I have more things to do.
I don't think I can handle it
It is all too new.

As a person
You have expectations.
All of this immense pressure
Has gone on for generations.

What will you do for a career?
How will you make your mark?
Planning out your life
Is no walk in the park.

Why can't people leave me alone,
Stop asking so many questions.
They say here are some thing you can do,
Let me give you some suggestions.

I understand you have to plan your future,
But stop pushing things in my face.
I just want to figure things out.
At my own pace.

With all of this pressure
I can't see straight.
I don't know what I love,
But I know what I hate.

What will be my mission in life?
How will I turn out.
I have no clue yet,
Because I don't know what I am about.

With pressure
Society puts us in a mold.
Most of us don't realize it,
But in some way we are controlled.

I don't want to be like everyone else
I want to be unique.
We can all achieve that
If we open up our mouths and speak.
