Changing 

By Natalie Meyers

We were always told that humanity’s problem was an identity crisis –

that we don’t know who we are 

and that is why there are so many problems, 

why everything is falling apart. 

But what if it isn’t falling apart? 

What if it is simply changing? 

No longer accepting the way things are, 

or being who it is told to be? 

Maybe just maybe 

Humanity is stripping itself of who it’s always been told it is, 

And instead, 

Showing its authentic self.
