A YEAR OF LIFE

My first year of life

Was full of joy of not recalling it

When I first went to private school

I had a taste of not fitting in

My sweet sixteen crushed my dreams

Of being happy ever again

As if I ever was

Like that summer I spent in bed

Alone with an Internet connection

Or that time I was punished

For fighting back

Docile like that, I graduated school

And lost all of my party friends

While breaking my sweetheart

First year at the university

I started fresh by reliving the gap

The aftermath of turning 21

Is becoming a homewrecker

And I relived the loneliness

I was drowning in anger and shame

But after I met you

I stopped living year by year

Because time could be endless

And so are we
