I have this problem
Where I think I need to be somebody.
A stream of hiccups that pop,
Making me think I need to live up
To expectations I never wanted.
Should I be a prismatic vase
With colors pulled every which way?
Or can I just accept my limited hues
And be comfortable as I am?
That is so wrong in their eyes.
Push, push, push. More! Gain more!
But I am happy with my vase
Of simple hues that I fill for myself.
Isn’t that enough?
