being special

being special

-- grace

oh child

you wish to be special

in this day and age?

7 near 8

billion people

in this world.

children

worse off than you

better off than you

same as you.

you can't be special in this world

make a new world to live in

find the cure to cancer

solve the never-ending problems,

never your own,

solve the mistakes of those long gone

solve the mistakes of adults above

live

no longer as children.

even then,

child,

you won't be special.
