Wonder of it All

I always thought I knew where I wanted to go

When I was a child- quite a long time ago

I always thought I knew what I wanted to be

Never would have imagined the day to dawn to actually see

I always thought the world was a pretty neat and small place

Now I know that there is much more out there-

so much more complex than this small, simple and confined space

I always thought it was commendable to exude confidence and strength

But now Im incapable of displaying fragility- even at my greatest length

I always thought Father Time would alter alter my perception

Could have never conceived any more of a disconcerting alteration

I thought I saw my future 

Just four short years ago

Full of luster and excitement

A vastly fascinating show

However, molded by reality and sculpted actuality

I stand to here now to only wonder

About love and life and peculiar universal morality
