I wonder what its like...

I wonder what its like to be a celebrity living the life.
To be the guy who sits there lonely at lunch.
I wonder what its like to live like you were dying.
To die without living.
I wonder what its like to change the world with one speech.
To have my own dream.
I wonder what its like to live in poverty or a third world country just wanting a bowl of rice.
To be the guy who thinks about suicide on a constant basis.
I wonder what its like to not be loved.
To dream but never achieve or to achieve all I dream.
I wonder what its like to be someone looking to change but has already got themselves too deep in the mud. 
To realize I failed it all, I failed everyone.
I wonder what its like to fly. 
To be small and unnoticed.
I wonder what its like to see everything.
To know it all so I couldn't fail.
I wonder what its like to see the "other side" and know what it is like.
To see if I have lived a good life and if it was actually worth it.
I wonder what it is like to change the world or to effect the world completely with my mind.
I wonder what its like to really BE.

  1. Such a great plot. Deep and Meaningful. I love the correlation with changing the world with a speech and dreams. (Martin Luther King Jr. Maybe?)

  2. If only we all could "know it all so [we] couldnt fail." I really liked the whole piece, nicely done!
