Stripped Down

weekend wordsmith 
 Sometimes I want to be rid of this uniform of conformity 
 Sometimes I want to be naked and bare to the world 
 Sometimes I don't want to be Mom and responsible for other people 
 Sometimes I don't want to go to work and care about other people's children 
 Sometimes I don't want to play nice with the stupid narcissistic people 
 Sometimes I just want to be me and do what makes me happy 
Stripped down 
To music and french fries Diet Coke and the Beach and a book 
Sometimes I realize those feelings 
Make me one of the stupid narcissistic people 
 And I put my uniform back on And smile
