One Choice...

One Choice, decided your friends.

One Choice, defines your beliefs.

One Choice, determines your loyalties.

Forever.

I had read this once. I did not understand it until recently though, who was the one that said it again?

I do not remember sadly. The only thing I do know is that it could not be truer for me right now.

Who do I choose? Do I choose this horrid life like everyone else? Wasting away following others decisions just to fit in?

Do I choose to give up my individuality, my freedom? Just so I could have what others call friends?

I do not know. The only thing I know is that we are not truly individuals.

We are prisoners, our jailors are society. Our shackles are society.

Our repressors are society.

Our saviours?

There are none...

We are meant to be free!

Soaring with the birds flying high in the sky, prowling with the beasts to find our feasts.

Exploring the unexplored, being an adventurer who is free! Being true to yourself!

We are are meant to be free!

To be free....

Oh what a dream I have! A dream to be free.

To live as I please, to be who I please, to do what I please.

Alas, twasn't meant to be. Tisnt my destiny but procastiny! 

These dreams floating around my head like clouds in the sky.

This is the only comfort I get, the knowledge that my thoughts are my own and mine alone.

These raging demons may drag me down into the deepest pits of hell, but at least these thoughts are my own.

At least my thoughts are safe from these demons.

These demons known as society...

Society's rules are absolute. No room for individuality. But society offers friendship. It offers a "normal" life.

At the cost of your individuality. At the cost of being me.

So who do I choose?

Do I choose society and follow the line of empty shells? For what thought? For friends I suppose.

Is it worth defying my beliefs? I am loyal to only myself but would that not also destroy that loyalty?

This question is stuck in my head! With no way out of answering it!

I'll have to choose soon won't I?

Choose between my individuality, the thing that makes me who I am.

That lets me be free and feel alive!

Or choose society, that which restricts us, which kicks us into a cage and shackles us for fun,

the only thing society cant change is the thoughts inside my head.

Now I remember who said it. Veronica Roth

It's time to choose.

i've made my choice,

The choice that will either let me be free to run a wild or the choice that will shackle me down.

These. These are the thoughts inside my head.
