This isn’t what what I planned,

That’s not where I wanted to be.

Theoretically I should be a lot of things.

Thriving and not barely surviving.

Trying and not feeling like dying.

Tricking my family, friends, and enemies, not

Treating myself to something so much better.

This will be different.

Time is finally on my side.

Tracking my progress, I

Try to get better.

Training daily,

Tracing the rules to the letter.

Thematically, like always,

The hero shall prosper.

Theatrics will be my savior,

Thousands of performances

To prove my worth.

To prove I deserve to be the protagonist.

Testing ideas.

Trying new things.

Tipping the scale.

Tardy not to my own destiny.

Tactically planning to make it through.

Talent shows me,

Thats all life asks for,

That’s all life needs.

Thank you.
