Is it really Normal?

What if Normal doesn't exist,
then what would we strive for?
What would people do
on day-to-day basis?

What is normal?
What is the word?
Why is the word?
Who gave someone the
right to decide WHAT
is normal?

Normal.
Such a plain sounding
word and yet it
describes life in the
most complex ways.

I can't decide whether
normal is good or not.
Should we be afraid
of it, afraid that we would
blend into the crowd
of normalcy?
Begin to feel gray
instead of the usual
colors of Black & White?

This is something to
ponder over. It might drive
one insane if they ponder
too long over normal.
Normal never existed,
we delude ourselves into
thinking that what we call
"perfect" lives or somewhat close
to it, is in fact "normal"

But really we only create
a life of our own imagination
of what normal looks like.
Over what normal should
feel like. And in the
end, we lose what
normal should be.
