Society

I was made to protect you,
to save you, to teach you.
Sometimes punish, sometimes explain,
what is good, what is not,
what is right, what is wrong.
But I wasn't meant to control
your decisions, your choices.
After all you are yourself
and I, just a shadow.

Times have changed dear,
I am, today, the master,
you are the slave.
I am the puppeteer,
you, the lifeless one here.
I decide, you follow.
You made me for
 your own end.
Try to rebel and
you will be tagged.
Try to speak up and
you will be banned.
I am not you.
Not anymore.
I am 'society'.....
