Fearless

"I am in control of no one but myself,

or so I've been told,

over and over again,

but low and behold,

some scholars are liars.

Who would have thunk that the educated could be so misleading,

in times when all a kid needs,

is to be told that at some point in life,

we all lose our minds.

I care about everyone but myself,

unless you're listening.

I'm always watching,

always waiting for the next available moment in time,

when I can lash out and make something of myself,

for myself,

because unless I'm doing,

I'm wasting,

and there are too many out there who are far too quick to judge.

I hope to better myself,

to make ends meet,

and find answers to all of these rhetorical questions,

posed lightly on a virtual plane,

so as not to overwhelm my OVER-WORKED brain. (poor brain x.x)

I just want to set foot on my own door-step for once,

take a big, deep breath,

and realize that once again,

I belong to an address,

not the other way around.

Its easy to forget how to appreciate your front door,

when you're always walking through it."
