Fighting Destiny

by CinnamonTwirl   Nov 8, 2005


My life has been laid out for me
Like a picnic set for a summers eve
Seemingly harmless, appearing ideal
A mirage, not sure this realities real

But I know of another feast
While latent, I know brings about peace
But when I find it, how will I know
That this is what my search has bestowed

I refuse to waste my whole life chasing
A goal I passed like a lady in waiting
Devoting my life to avoid and flee
The life thats been laid out for me

I wrote this today during English class....while NOT payin attention (college bites) and Its just about how like, i think there\'s this certain way im expected to live my life...and I dont want to
