A Teen\'s Thoughts

(written on my 18th b-day)

Darkness...

Confusion...

fear of tomorrow.

Hopes and Dreams.

I\'m 18 years old

The world is in front of me;

At least, that is what I\'m told.

All I have to do

is grab it, and I\'ll do ok

in the thing many call \"life\"...

but...I\'m scarred.

Scarred that I won\'t find the way to

The street on Life Boulevard

That I am supposed to go on.

Scarred that I won\'t know

If it\'s the right one for me.

Scarred to take the turn,

scarred that if I do,

I\'ll fail...

fail to do OK.

But, I don\'t want to do OK!

I want to be remembered,

I want to be an idol,

someone great!

Is that too much to ask?

I feel alone.

The street I need to go on,

has no signs.

I have to choose my path carefully,

so I won\'t take a wrong turn.

There are no shortcuts, only obstacles...

Am I strong enough to pass them?

What does Life have in store for me?

As Darkness thickens around me,

I wonder if Light will ever prevail...

Will I do great, or just OK?

Or... will I fail?
