The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Some day, I'm going to become rich...

But right now, I'll just casually work in this ditch

Some how, I'm going to become famous...

Although at the moment most consider me nameless

Sometimes, I imagine myself at the top of the Alps...

I'm sure I'll get there, though I tend to slack off and slouch

Someone will eventually notice my talent...

So I don't need to work hard or keep any balance

Somebody's going to naturally fall for my charm...

So I'm not going to fuss about love or raise an alarm

 

So many hopes forgotten, so many wishes spent

Because somewhere on this road of dreams

My life just came and went.

Ooo.... *applauds* nice poem, Wyvern- it sort of shows how I think a lot of people go through life, waiting for 'the perfect time' to do something, and then realizing finally that they missed their chance.

I particularly like the ending. Tight, compact, and packs a punch. ----------

It reminds me of something seen at a glance that we don't think of untill it suddenly applys with more force than we would like to admit. Very ::searches for an adjective but gets distracted as a giant mushroom bounces past:: Holy Mushrooms and Magic Cookies!

That definetly sums up a lot of peoples life. I hope more people read it and think about it. Thank you for showing it to us.
