Expectations


Expecting me to be a doctor

Xeroxing me to be like my brother

Persuading me with her indoctrination

Even when I have my own ambitions

Can you see I want to be more than a physician 

Tell me what can and can't

 

No I am not your expectation

You tell me what I should be

Yet I found my own passion

You do not count the other alternatives

Yes I want to get an accounting degree

I aspire for more than an undergraduate


Exposing the fraudulent 

More than the office work

While everyone laments

I want to contribute without a lock

With inspiration being the key

Forensic accounting what I see

That is my future and what I want to do.
