Trapped
In my own head
With my own thoughts
Thoughts I was told all my life would make me burn
For their nature
Alas, my thoughts reflect the animal within
For I have felt pride
I have been envious
Many things cause wrath to arise in me
Sloth, or laziness, flows through my being
And what person has not been in the clutches of greed?
Surely I am not the only human affected by the evolutionarily produced gluttony?
Am I the only one with a need for more than I have, despite having an abundance already?
And lust certainly is something many people fall victim to
I could make excuses for these
Society
Changing times
Any number of things
But I don't have to
For why should I need to excuse my humanity
Censor my thoughts
Or change who I am when this is how humans are
How we have become over many years
How it is in nature
Why try to change when you never truly will?
Or not even don't try because you can't
Do not try to change these things about yourself because there's nothing wrong with them.
