Ready
I’m ready for it all. I’m scared yes, but the shaking in my legs won’t stop the marching in my feet. The life I love, the love I love, it’s all laid out in front of me. And though I’m scared as I try it all on that it won’t fit… I’m going through with it anyways, because every time that fear rears its misunderstood head, I start to think about the life I’ll live if I don’t do it like this. The scared life I’ll live. The life where I go to college, get a degree, get a good job, get a decent wife, and continue this trend till the boring day I die.
That excuse of a life isn’t for me.
I’ve known this since I was in kindergarten being asked what I wanted to be when I grew up. I know my lips muttered “policeman” and “fireman” but my heart and mind were conversing “Look, we don’t fucking know, but we’re gonna buy a little time and play this game till we’re ready” And you fucking know what?
I’m ready. I’m not afraid to admit to myself I want to be president, or a 5 star chef, or the world’s most renowned actor or the world’s sexiest most talented musician. Fuck I’m not even afraid to say I might be blessed to live all these lifetimes in this one lifetime I’m given starting with music and acting and ending with politics and science.
So there it is.
Boy oh boy am I ready.
