Learning to be me

another short poem from a collection I am trying out. I hope you enjoy.

Why does growing old scare me so much? Because I am scared I will lose my looks therefore I will lose my importance. And that is what society has done to me.

Another way to look at it is that society has been kind enough to tell you why you shouldn't pay attention to it.

very true! although looking at things positively is sometimes hard to do, I think that's why we write them down into poems?
