More is Less

Location

Flaw...less

every single time I listen to them and decide to change myself to fit into their stereotypical box just so I can be politically correct I become less,

not necessarily flawless,

but less of a human

less of me

less of the person I was created to be

and more like a robot

or a machine

created to work for not my goals and dreams

but for the idealistic human being

that sets standards too high to reach

‘cause lets face it

I will never be five foot eight underweight with a smile on my freshly tanned face

because that’s not living

I would rather be flaw...¨more¨

and have more of the things I love

like a cheeseburger and milkshake with my friends

or a jam session sung off key

I would rather not be flawless and be the flaw”more” me
