We use our minds to identify who we are instead of our hearts and souls that were formed with emotions that led us to break free from chains
We are slaves to the system of self image and we are shackled by the regret and doubt of not looking like her or not being like him
They bound us to think and be one sided and then we are stuck in a system that oppresses us
We will never know who we are if we don't stop thinking about him or her
We will never know who we are until we ignore standards
We will never know who we are if we allow the chains of our minds to get tight until it breaks us, then we will never know what it truly means to be us.
