Hello, welcome there, my name is Society,
If you want to enjoy your stay, simply follow my key.
If you are quite you are depressed,
If you are happy you need to be suppressed.
If you are reserved you are weaker,
If you are expressive you are an attention seeker.
If you act yourself you should change,
If you act like someone, you are simply strange.
If you help the poor you are trying to impress,
If you don't donate you are stuck up, for others you couldn't care less.
If your neckline is low you're asking for it,
If you cover yourself you're boring and clearly unfit.
If you're smart you're obviously a nerd,
If you're dumb you're unattractive and very absurd.
If you like to eat,you're fat, watch the food you pick,
If you don't eat you're undoubtedly anorexic.
If you compliment yourself you are obnoxious,
If you don't, then not getting others compliments makes you anxious.
These are the rules and guidelines you have to follow here,
To stay happy which is really impossible my dear,
For as soon as you think you are happy, I'll make you fear,
I'm never satisfied, I hope I've made that clear.
Trying to find yourself in a world revolving around perfection,
When in reality what defines who we are is imperfection.
- Aastha Mehta

Song on the side: Life of the Party- Shawn Mendes
It really has no connection to the poem but well if you think of the lyrics not for a girl or guy you like but generally. for anyone or yourself it kinda makes sense:$
Well I hope it does..
