Images of the Future

One can dream, right? This is a wishful prediction of how my future in college will be. Not very depressing, just realistic. RR!

1. The Beginning of the Zenith
All alone on the crowded street
The uncrowned now King
I stare at blurred images of students
Dripping wetness, rain soaking my coat
Standing outside a coffee shoppe,
A deep breath is taken.
I am alone but I am happy.

2. Strains of Afterlife
Bent over a crumpled paper,
My hair touches the dusty desk
I write furiously with a moribund pen
Words concocted in my mind,
And sprung to life in my hand.
I shiver and I yawn
For work at any rate is not easy.
My head falls,
Overcome with deathly fatigue.

3. Enlightenment
In the middle of nature's evergreen
I stare at the boy in the dreams,
Now become a man,
And I struggle to battle tears.
He shakes his head and takes my hand…
I only frown.
Depressive pieces of my soul
Creep ever so slowly into my fears.
But then, words are spoken softly.
Pieces taped together to form an image,
A whole being, one entity…
I am rejoicing inside.
