Simplicity.... Yay or Nay?

Does everything have to be defined or is there a beauty when it’s unsaid?
Is chemistry something visual or is what’s important in our head?
Does our brain stop our heart from feeling our heads with lead?
Or is it our hearts that stop us sounding like we're brain dead?
They say what you don’t know can't hurt you….
Is it really that simple?
Is ignorance the key to bliss?
Or is not knowing what causes the problems?
They say a perfect relationship is when 2 people become one…..
Is that true?
Do both minds have to think alike when they’re together?
Or is it okay they can disagree and have their own free will?
Is going with the flow and living for the day the right way?
Or is being hyper aware and questioning everything okay?
Does putting up with the other person’s flaws make a relationship better?
Or is it correcting each fault and discussing it that makes it much better?
If none of these choices are right or wrong then how do we decide?
In the end, if you really think about it, nobody has all the answers,
There isn’t one solution that’ll fix all our problems.
If it was that simple wouldn’t we all be happy with what we choose?

Unapologetic

I'm sorry I don't meet your standards, I follow my own rules.
I don't crave your approval or want any attention,
I just want my voice to be heard, that's all.
You can believe me if you want, or don't I don't really care.
I will always be myself and I won't apologize.
I don't want to be like anyone else,
I'm the first and last of my kind and I'm happy with that.
I will evolve and be better but my life doesn't revolve around being liked,
Not anymore at least, I'm done believing in such naive things.
I like myself the way I am, thank you very much.
I don't need your two cents telling me what I should do,
Or how to live my life, if I want your input I'll ask for it.
If not keep your big mouth shut, the world doesn't revolve around you.
Stop making everything about yourself and what YOU think is right.
You're not God almighty to decide  so for God sake stop trying,
You aren't perfect and neither am I, so check your self before you wreck yourself.
I might sound harsh and I might sound rude but I'm done living in the shadows.
I'm done pretending to agree to keep the peace, I'm done faking.
This is who am like it or not. This is who I choose to be.
Deal with or you know where the door is... Okay, Peace, Bye!

Welcome to Sri Lanka - The Zack Snyder edition

Welcome to Sri Lanka a land of misinterpretations and assumptions,
People don't really understand what's happening most of the time
So instead of doing research on it they interpret in a way they want to.
Or they make assumptions on what it actually means.

Welcome to Sri Lanka where the truth isn't important,
Reality is boring, lets talk about this instead,
It's way more interesting, scandalous and juicy.
If you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth

Welcome to Sri Lanka, a land with heritage and culture,
Heritage is whatever people want it to be, just like culture is,
Culture can be used to shut people up and raise their voice,
As long as its a elderly person says its fine, young people? no way.

Welcome to Sri Lanka, a land where grandma's go to church to gossip.
During church the sermon says love thy neighbor like as yourself,
But as soon as church done they're outside discussing their neighbors wife
As long as its just talking it doesn't hurt I guess

Welcome to Sri Lanka, a land where raising your voice is rude,
Talking behind peoples is fine but confrontation is unheard of,
The proper way to deal with problems isn't face to face,
It's behind their backs with other people.

Welcome to Sri Lanka, a land where girls are only supposed to be seen and not heard.
We've had a female president but girls aren't supposed to speak up,
Their supposed to clean and know how to cook or else nobody will want to marry them.
I guess equal rights isn't really important as long as they marry a nice rich boy.

Welcome to Sri Lanka, a land where getting raped is a girls fault.
Boys will be boys, girls shouldn't walk alone or dress the way they want to,
Consent or showing boys how to be decent human beings isn't an option,
It's always her or her parents fault, they should have know better.

Welcome to Sri Lanka, a land where you're supposed to respect your adults even if it kills you,
They've been on this earth longer than you so they know what's best for you.
If they tell you the sky is neon green, it's neon green, trust them, they know better.
You might not agree with them but you have to do as you're told or you're a bad kid.

Welcome to Sri Lanka, a land where you're not an adult unless you get married.
You could take care of your family, be responsible and educated but all that doesn't matter.
You're unmarried which makes you still a kid until you get hitched.
The day you get married though you suddenly become an adult.

Welcome to Sri Lanka, a land where other people know whats best for you.
They may have no clue what you're going through but they still know whats best for you.
They know the time you should study and the time for you to find a partner.
If you don't agree with them keep your mouth shut and wait men, don't be rude!

Welcome to Sri Lanka where children have to live out their parents dreams and not their own.
A child can have dreams but dreams are all they'll ever be.
Parents know better, they've known you all your life so they know whats good for you.
You might be unhappy doing it, thats fine, as longs their happy they'll call you a good child.
