Spanish poem I identify with (translation below):

Muere lentamente quien se transforma en esclavo del hábito,
repitiendo todos los días los mismos trayectos, quien no cambia de marca,
no arriesga vestir un color nuevo y no le habla a quien no conoce

(One) dies slowly, he who transforms himself into a creature of habit,
repeating daily the same trajectories (or paths) which do not change direction
not risking to wear a new color nor speaking to those who he does not know.

— Pablo Neruda
