Decency is special, too


 *

Being a doctor is what they call a major success

Having high monthly salary is what they call a real job

Achieving multiple degrees is what they call smart

Out of that line, is just a joke, a false pride

The play on age is an absolute life measurement

Reaching off-book dreams sounds like smuggling drugs

It’s illegal

It’s a crime

It’s a shame

What about them who try so hard to just be alive

What about them who try so hard to get out of bed

What about them who are dying inside but smiling outside

What about them who have to face that mean eye-glare for still holding on

  * Moon is what I’ve been wishing to talk to Wave is what I’ve been wanting to run with Space is where I’ve been wanting to live in Deep breath is what I’ve been dying to have Slowly knitting a dream from scratch Carefully looking for a guide to sanity Wishing that this is that one direction I've been looking for But then they say “As a rock, you have too much to wish for.” #
