The Power To Change

by Koyaanisquatsi...Virgo - Not entered

Deep below the surface my mind will remain
No one can ever remove the knowledge I retain
Always in disagreement, my voice you wish to silence 
But your little wishes won't have my compliance

Beneath the cold rock your intentions will lay
Denying your investigation will have consequences to pay
Overconfident and extremely routine
Versus balance, varied, and always serene

Follow the ducks and you will find a lake
Try something different and it could be a fake
Particular chances you may have to take
Experience will result from the mistakes that you make

The drive toward opposition is definitely strong
But in agreement certainly isn't where you belong
To find the correct balance is a dangerous feat
Perhaps this is the link to making your life complete

Fearful of changing so you follow the norm
You see no problem with the tendency to conform
Over time certain beliefs tend to expire
You'd definitely change if it didn't ignite a fire

Change is necessary
Change can give light
To a well-rehearsed belief
Whose leash is too tight.

Reason for writing:

    Individuals that are so scared of trying something new that they live their lives in paranoia.
