What do you mean?

What do you mean I left everything I know and love and started new What do you mean the few I called friends times are due What do you mean my animals are back at home I’m crying because I feel alone What do you mean I’m going on a tour in June One I planned with three friends then it was just two Then soon two became undone So I was forced to find someone before the clock hit noon What do you mean school ended I just moved here some people were just befriended What do you mean I’ll be a senior 9 more months then things are cleaner Did I say cleaner I meant meaner Life goes on and now I’m seen I’m finally seen as a marine What do you mean my four years are up What did you not have enough ? No I did But life moves fast When is it that my time will last In a crowd filled with love What do you mean that’s not a dove A swan appeared in a lake Showing colors that are not fake Now I’m questioning is this fate Fast forward five more years Said F three times and now I’m here Three kids and one more on the go Finally a place I’d love to call home With a view so bright And a life that I had to fight I finally made it to the end Looking up at the night sky Jocelynn’s cafe has finally been signed Big opening on a Tuesday afternoon I made this plan when I was seventeen knowing it would come soon Thank you universe for my life A life that hasn’t started yet but I’ll make it right Now let me say goodnight ??
