VAGUE WORDS THAT MAY MEAN SOMETHING TO YOU
Life in a letter
or letter in a life
like the ones in the mail
that tell me if my future will be bright
did i study hard enough
did i sacrifice enough
to reach this point
to be rejected by
a letter
a letter that can tell me if i get to make the choices
if i get to go to the places
one must go
to be taken seriously
by those who received letters
telling them their futures were dim?
do the writers of these letters
know that they are the problem
or is it i
myself
that is the true problem
take the bull by the horns
take the letters by
the mail
hold fast to my courage
can i make it if i do not have a letter?
do i let others make it if they
do not have letters
