poem 1

this is the first poem we got:

the Writer is Zenam Bi

Define me?
Definitions, stereotypes, expectations,
I fall into none of them.
How can my definition be made when my full stop has not been reached?
Certainty is only in the things I believe: Religion, Humanity, and Rebellion
Caus this f***** world’s gone crazy.
Everybody pulling in different directions.
This is who you are! This is who you should be!
Well f*** that, I am no-one’s puppet. I’m going to choose my own destiny,
My morals and values intact, because a hypocrite I could never be.
From each experience, each situation defined for me, I learned:
Overcoming weaknesses, finding different strengths, forging new facets of me.
But from each experience, each situation defined for me
I refuse to define me, who is myself.
How can I explain me when I’ve not yet learned all I can be,
Or lived life’s opportunities to test every part of me?
Emotionally, spiritually, physically, I have a lot to learn of what I can and can’t achieve.
Only one thing’s certain at this point in time: I’m sticking to my beliefs;
 Culture or society, neither will sway me.
I am many different things most of which I have yet to realize and reach.

The first quotes that jumped out were "define me" and "puppet" which was a angle we worked on and gave ideas to Lija to start storyboarding.
