"Why try to fit in when you were born to stand out?"


Sometimes I think it’s a monster out to destroy me
I get up and wonder everyday what I did to deserve it
I wish so hard that life was like a flat screen TV with a remote control
That way I could fast forward to the fun part
Other times I think to myself, “Maybe it’s not so bad”
“NOT. SO. BAD”
After all I don’t want to be old, and my only responsibility is to live life to the fullest
I understand it’s only a part of this big game
On which we all play a role
But unlike any Xbox I know, there is no redo or start over
You cannot turn back the hands of time
The only direction this boat knows is forward
So even though this may be the most overwhelmingly heart-wrenching ride of my life
I vow to enjoy and achieve something out of this cursed-blessed thing called ADOLESCENCE

I wrote this piece four years ago, when I was in middle school for an English project. I was going through my old stuff when I found it. Even though I wrote it a long time ago, I still identify with the piece. It still holds true for me. This caused me to have a trip down memory lane but at the same time it caused me to realize that some things remian the same.
