chosen one

I want my destiny

Given in my hand like a trophy.

I want to know what I'm made for,

Right now, I feel empty. 

 

Everyone else has their purpose,

And they just seem to fit. 

Why am I left sitting on the bench,

Waiting for a bus that'll never come?

 

I once dreamt of a fantasy world,

Where I would be "the chosen one"

I would hold my sword up high,

And be the ultimate role model. 

 

Now I feel unfit

To be in such a world. 

It's like I'm living a lie

Finally finding my purpose. 

 

Can I give away my destiny?

Can I avoid it somehow?

Maybe they can see that I don't deserve

To be their chosen one.

    I’ve always wondered

    What it’s like to be myself

    Openly and honest

    And not hiding behind bookshelves

    Waiting for someone to see

    And let me into their heart.

    My neighbor is doing Duolingo across the street,

    He’s in his sixties learning a new language

    And I’m just eating leftovers, watching him,

    Wondering if he’s practicing French for his husband.
     

  • See you, brother

    I don't think you're a waste of space,

    I'll give you my room and my pillow

    As long as you make the bed afterwards,

    And close the windows to keep the rain out. 

     

    I don't think your not enough,
