"What do you want to do when you grow up"
"I want to change the world"
"Ok but what are you going to do?"
"Change the world"
"You can't"
"I can"
"You won't"
"I will"
"A little girl like you, can't do a thing"
"Yes I can"
"You're too young to understand"
"No I'm not"
"You're not going to change a thing"
"How do you know"
"I just do"
"Well I know that I'm going to change the world"
"Good luck"
"Thank you!"

Love is an open door?
All you need is love?
Love story?
I know that feeling
A bit differently
Not quite what the song was intended for
But I know of love
That opens doors
The love that is
Dear New York City,
I don’t know what it is
That makes me love it so much
Maybe it’s the buildings
That stretch towards the sky
Forever reaching upwards
Have you ever seen dozens of roses?
A field perhaps
Covered in red beauty
Have you ever tried walking through dozens of roses?
Your fingertips perhaps
Covered in red blood
From afar roses are gorgeous
