What Would You Change?


What would you change?

What would I change?

Oh man, that's easy.

You see, that's all that I think about.

It's all I think about when I'm five minutes late for school and the car in front of me is driving ten under the speed limit.

It's all I think about when I wear any of my shirts because all of my brothers' hand-me downs are a size too small for me.

It's all I think about when my dad's hands shake and he asks me the same question three times within an hour without noticing.

What would I change?

Oh man, that's easy.

You see, that's all that I think about.
