Should I if I Should?

Oftentimes I'm distressed whenever people try to determine what I ought to be. Many times would people say that I should do this and I should be like that without even considering what I think and what I feel about myself and the thing that they are referring to and wanting me to be...

Out of the depths,
I grasp for freedom;
Roaring like a lion,
And Searching...

Searching for a truth
That must be part of me...

Not of those who say what I should be;
Not of those who say what I must be.

But Should I be what they say I should be?

I guess not...

I feel not...

I hope not!

I am my own being,
Subjected only
To the foremost of my kind.

And no one else.
