“Because when I was young and I'd get an A on a history test.. or whatever.. I'd get this good feeling about all the things that I could be. And then I never became any of them.”<br /> -The Pursuit of Happyness


Today I am fifteen and its another day 

Another tree 

Some more sweet summer breeze 

All the things I could explore

A good day I implore 

Another pier

Another deer 

Another night filled with dread and tears 

All the things I could do I wish to spend time with you 

But the day marches on without me in thought 

Whether or not I rise with the sun doesn't matter 

Another day ( I wish I was someone else)

What can I say ( I wish I was someone else) 

Another humid day in the month of June 

Another bee 

Another rainy day under the trees

leaves whisper by my ears 

I've dried all my tears 

Sunset has painted me new 

 I have time to spend with you 

And I've turned Sixteen


The author's comments:

This is a poem I wrote on my sixteenth birthday. fifteen was a difficult age and i think it is for a lot of people. this is about how everything begins to feel repetitive there are so many beautiful things in the world but they all seem to mesh together and end up as another thing, nothing special. But moving on from one stage of your life is realizing all the things you still have and there is always time left to enjoy the best things in life
