Here I am
writing nothing of importance
in my cozy room
on my laptop
keys clacking under the weight
of my early morning thoughts
my early morning thoughts
that are too insignifigant
for the world to hear.
What if I was someone else
a face at the front of a revolution
a face that could launch a thousand ships
a face that could touch souls
someone that the world wanted to hear
someone that the world was ready to listen to?
If I let ideas flow from my mouth like sweet honey
flow and stick
golden to the touch
will they change the world?
No,
and that's okay.
Because one person can't change the world
without the help of others
one person cannot insight a revolution
without dedicated followers to back them up
one person cannot launch a thousand ships
without someone to find them interesting.
Yes, you can say what you mean
and mean what you say
but without someone to guide you
without something to guide you
you sit alone
on your laptop at two in the morning
writing a poem
Here I am
writing nothing of importance
