Zoned Out
Sometimes, I like to sit by my window.
Whether I'm doing homework or drawing,
I tend to zone out.
I don't mean too. I can't help it.
Usually, I'll think about my future.
Am I going to graduate?
What am I going to be doing after college?
Will I even go to college?
Will I become what I want to be?
Or be stuck flipping burgers at McDonald's?
Other times, I'll get lost in a daydream.
The reality I want but I'll never get.
I might even think,
"Will tomorrow be better than today?"
And I'll just think of the life I have now.
Once I snap out of it,
I go back to what I was doing.
Like nothing ever happened.
