Why Popularity?

by Fahad aged 12

Why popularity?
The taste of behaviour
The lack of nature
To be one in disguise
Who the real one despise
The true feeling of freedom
Covered up with a lack of sight.
There’s no wrong or right
To be the bright
To be the one who stands out in the night.

Why popularity?
Why do you CARE what other people think?
Why do you CARE how someone sees you?
Why do you CARE if you’re popular or not?
And I ask you again, WHY popularity?
In a couple of years they won’t matter
In a couple of years you will be the star who stands out wherever you go
So be you!
Don’t listen what someone has to say only to criticise you,
To make you feel down
To make you frown

Why popularity?
Why waste your time trying to be someone else?
Why waste your time trying to put your feet in someone else’s shoes?
Time is priceless
Time is gold
I’ve once been told
The Earth has rolled
The kids are trolled
Your minds are sold
To a dimension where you aren’t accepted
Until you are perfected
So, why popularity?
