I'll be there

Self confidence at another plane... As my days grew shorter and nights turned long, my explanations got weirder and answers all wrong, I realized this could be a problem with no solution in sight, and taking this into account, I think my mama could be right, when she said to me, "You are spoiling your life, beware", I answered,"Don't worry mama, I'll be there". The books appeared thicker and the notebooks thin, I was where I had started, no loss no win, I reflected all glory of times unspent, the disgraceful aperture of wisdom, I repent, My friends said, "Why don't you care?", I answered, "Don't worry dear, I'll be there". I never gave a second thought to decisions I made, I never retried tests of life I failed, All I knew was thatit was me, And I cared a damn for the others to see, I'm sure I'll succeed, but don't ask me where, I repeat affirmatively, "I'll be there".

What stayed with you?

A line that lingered, a feeling, a disagreement. Great comments are as valuable as the original piece.

Great Work --- It seems like this is the story going for most of teens today, want to go somewhere and going somewhere else but what we need to understand is that the " Difference between dreamers and doers is merely acting upon the dreams"
