This poem is about a lost soul, one of life’s challenges to find a path to follow. It’s about me, stuck in a rut.

In high school,

I should’ve payed more attention

I should’ve studied harder,

without exception,

listened better

But I was a slacker

I applied to college

without a plan

without a calling

Everyday I moseyed to class

if I didn’t skip, I cried

and let my self get behind

Part time student

became full time dropout

full time cashier with a smile

I let my parents down

but I’m still searching for my dreams

and the life thats right for me

Square one kind of sucks

but enlightening all the same

freedom doesn’t know conformity

so I’ll get a new tattoo

and follow my heart to

find a happiness that’s true
