Impossible


Somebody as messed up as me

Could never help people by talking it out

It's impossible

 

Anyone as poor as I am

Can't even dream of getting through all the schooling

It's impossible

 

For a slacker such as me

To take on two or three majors?

It's impossible

 

I don't have the drive

The passion

The resources

The know how

Anything to obtain my dream

It's impossible

 

A spacey

Oblivious

Lazy

"Depressed"

Loner 

Being successful

It's impossible

 

They don't see

That I'm doing everything to make it possible

 

They don't know me

And how wrong they are

 

Somebody who's messed up as me

Is the perfect canditate to talk it out

It's possible

 

People with less money than me

Get graduate degrees all the time

It's possible

 

When working under pressure with what I love

Two or three majors will hardly feel like any work at all

It's possible

 

I can work on my drive

Show my passion

Find the resources

If I ask for the know how

Everything it takes to get there

Is possible

 

A day dreamer

With different priorities

Than you

Who is happy

And social away

Being successful

Is possible

 

No matter what it takes

Or how much it might suck

And involve reworking

I will figure out a way to merge

Therapy with animals and the arts

Being an animal assisted art phychologist?

It's possible

If I am willing to make it

 

My dream is just as possible as yours

Because when it matters;

Nothing is

Impossible
