She seeks purpose in herself,
to become great,
to make a mark on the world
as so many have before.
Oh how she writes
till her hands bruise,
carving her name to history
Is it too late to be a prodigy?
To be a muse?
To be inspired,
alive,
young,
hopeful?
Is it too late to erase
the writing on the communal wall?
How she longs to be remembered
Strives to someday write words as heavy as they.
And how is it that with so few words her heart would be in your hand

She seeks purpose in herself,
to become great,
to make a mark on the world
as so many have before.
Oh how she writes
till her hands bruise,
carving her name to history
Is it too late to be a prodigy?
To be a muse?
To be inspired,
alive,
young,
hopeful?
Is it too late to erase
the writing on the communal wall?
How she longs to be remembered
Strives to someday write words as heavy as they.
And how is it that with so few words her heart would be in your hand
