We aren’t who we want to be

 

We are what society demands. 

We are what our parents choose. 

We don’t want to disappoint anyone; 

we have a great need to be loved.

 So we smother the best in us. 

Gradually, the light of our dreams turns into the monster of our nightmares.

 They become things not done, possibilities not lived.
