Monotonous
Standing in
Falling out
Hushed silences
are calling out.
Who am I ?
What will I be ?
cut me a slice of luck
and perhaps you shall see.
Nothing special
yet far from mediocre
not having said much
I am the one often spoke of.
Walk upon waves
so my steps are washed and erased
This place I go to
it is where I will not be traced
To a nation of one
where a king is vital
but I refuse to lead
unless granted a title
Does wealth quench the thirst
for all that one can desire ?
The elders have departed
and left for me to inquire.
The end draws me in
I smell it getting closer.
Minutes away from culmination
Decades away from closure.
Standing in
Standing proud.
Hushed silences
are whispering now.
Will I ever grow up ?
Will I ever change ?
Who I was is
Who I will always remain.
