What  am I? Lost on the race for my on identity. A 21 year old boy with world rising all around him. Friends turning into adults like fields of sunflowers. Here I sit content but people saying I should do "better". It's not that I want to stay a child forever I just know I am not a man. In my eyes I'll always be something in-between. I just want to write silly poems and play with words. All this self-doubt of everything shall shackle me to the now. I can't grow up if I can't achieve greatness in doing it. Lay that crown on my head but I'll won't be a king.
