One of Those Moments

Submitted by JulieJ on May 27, 2008 - 18:48.

I plan to change the world,
To be…somebody
But how realisitic is that?
Most likely I’ll never be anything but some teacher,
Like my parents.
Or maybe I will be a daycare person, or a clown.
Sometimes, though, I have those ambitious thoughts.
And then I just sigh,
“Yeah right.”

I’m having one of those moments
Where I don’t care, just as long as life never gets as boring
And pointless as it is
Right now.
