I wake up, looking for the meaning of life
Each day it's something different, maybe a different fight
I work, i go to school, i feel so lonely
All my relationships have become so phony
I miss the days, where I would laugh and smile
It's more like, I simply miss being a child
Am I depressed, yes or no?
I haven't known for months now, lost my glow
The more I learn, I miss my years of innocence
You don't realize in life, all of your differences
I love one, or maybe just the same
But to many, I speed in my Jetta down one lane
One day, I will find the courage to tell
What I've known for years now, hidden in my shell
Each year, I change some more
Each week, becoming more unsure
Music or law? In school for one
Piano on my arm, or holstering my gun?
Fame and money, all I see
These days I wish it was my reality
I only want these things, to make me happy
But even Beyonce gets unhappy
2016 was the year for me
The year to learn everything is not as it seems....

WELCOME 2016 "EVERYTHING IS NOT AS IT SEEMS" is a great lesson to learn as young as you can. Some die without learning it ! The events you describe throughout the poem are alas a common lot ~ mainly because "Everything is not really as it seems to be !" Great first poem ~ thanks for sharing ! Yours BRIAN Please check my poems ~ Thanks B
Sometimes reality sucks. I remember as a child having so much pure pleasure playing with a toy truck in a ditch. Never in my adult life have I felt anything so gratifying.
