Labels

please stop labeling me
you can't
I am unique
there is no label
that will fit me
or anyone else
I pray when and where
I want to
I eat what I want to
when and where it suits me
I don't follow every fad
facebook twitter and texing
don't need it
I don't like waiting in line
makes me think I am waiting
to become like all those ahead of me
give me land lots of land
with starry skies above
don't fence me in
with a label
my life is my own
for me to know
and for me to let go
of what others will know
there is way too much talk
about everything
we need to shut up
and live our lives
the best we can
my husband use to say
if you don't live your life
someone else will
don't want to be like
someone else
you can be you better
it is only in the end
you become part of the whole again
leaving it at birth
returning with the final label
this is all
you need to know
