As An Adolescent

Carefree days and endless nights Great surprises and delights Dreaming of my future goals And what story will told Watching stars on favorite shows Wishing that I had a role Reading books on faraway lands And envisioning my plans What would my destiny entail Will my fortune be derailed Will I achieve enormous heights Will my visions work out right Will I live in exotic places And hob-nob with the famous faces Will I have a great career And have loved ones that are near In my mind I’ve painted stories Of cherished dreams and splendid glory Will my wishes then arise And appear before my eyes If I use my imagination And dismiss my limitations I’ll achieve my coveted goal And my future will unfold

Yes, a conflicted time... full of idealism and hope and also fear... Thank you.
