The Prison

In cells of self-doubt, we're confined,
By thoughts of others, forever aligned.
Their judgments, our jailer's stern decree,
A prison of perception, we can't break free.

Actions that drain, inactions that stall,
Net worth stagnant, our potential's fall.
We chase others' views, a never-end game,
And happiness flees, with no one to claim.

Advice from skeptics, a toxic guide,
"Play it safe," they say, as dreams divide.
Follow the crowd, and misery's assured,
A life of regret, forever obscured.
