Why Does No One Consider

Why does no one consider the fact
that even though I'm smart enough
to go above and beyond
that I could be a leader
and change the world
I don't want to

I just want to live my life
go to college
get a degree
and then a job

I know I can do anything I put my mind to
But I'm already struggling enough
Most of my energy goes to stay alive
So who cares if I'm capable of doing more

I just want to wake up one day and not dread the fact that I'm still alive

It's not that I don't think I'm incapable of changing the world
I just want to live
And love it

Why do I dread the fact that I'm still alive...
