Ghosts

Wolf

All I ever wanted was to make a difference and change the world.

But I never made a dent in making a difference but still the world did change, leaving me behind as I stay the same.

All I ever wanted was to be somebody. Somebody that had an important and worthwhile name.

But all I was ever to achieve was to stay a nobody. A nobody worth remembering because he's just too tame. 

All I ever wanted was to have a happy and strong family.

But all I ever got was people I wanted to run away and be free from.

All I ever wanted was to have those good friends you see on T.V.

But it took awhile to realize and accept that those are just make believe.

All I ever wanted was to give my heart to someone and they give theirs in return.

But all that end up happening is me giving mine away and then getting burned. 

All I ever wanted was to be happy and smile with pride. But it seems like life has other plans as it takes me for a ride. 

All I ever wanted was for these dreams of mine to come true.

But all of them now haunt me out of the blue.

All I ever wanted was not to be like most.

But I realize I am even less I am just a sad little ghost.
