What is next anyway?
I did not ask to be born
To begin with
And now
Neither did you
As you open
Your eyes
Childhood is
Over
My teenage angst has
Gone out of style
The joke is on
Who?
I cannot blame anyone
For setting me up
I cannot point
The finger
With a wish to retreat
Stop conveniently
Forgetting
The here and now
Because here you are
And I need to build
A shield
A wall
A shelter
Because here you are
And I need to wield
A spear
A plow
A hammer
And make it better
Keep the flood of shit at bay
Construct a sense of hopefulness
That changes may arise
Out of the shortcomings of men
I did not ask to be born
To begin with
And now
Neither did you
As you open
Your eyes
Childhood is
Over
My teenage angst has
Gone out of style
The joke is on
Who?
I cannot blame anyone
For setting me up
I cannot point
The finger
With a wish to retreat
Stop conveniently
Forgetting
The here and now
Because here you are
And I need to build
A shield
A wall
A shelter
Because here you are
And I need to wield
A spear
A plow
A hammer
And make it better
Keep the flood of shit at bay
Construct a sense of hopefulness
That changes may arise
Out of the shortcomings of men
