Wrecks of Humanity

We all have things about us
that we try to hide inside.
In the deepest recesses of our souls,
dark secrets do reside.
Society deems it necessary to label
everyone in a category.
We are no longer individuals in this
politically correct society.

What once was hyperactivity,
is now labeled as a disability.
Is this really how it should be?
All labels and categories instead
of mere humanity?

Emotional baggage, insecure and co-dependent.
That is what they call people, usually with pity or disdain,
but isn't everyone dependent on people or some other thing?
Anxiety and anger, love and hate,
Darkness and light, back down or fight.

No more human wreckage, we're people, we feel.
As much as the experts try
by labels to identify,
we are human--everyone.
We need to fight till the battle is won.
