knowhere is for the geniuses

at 17 

i thought i was suppose to have my life figured out 

that every decision i made 

was going to shape who i was 

but the truth is even at 20 i dont know who i am 

i wake up every morning wondering what if 

some say so far i have been a failure  

that im doing nothing with my life

 but at this age 

what really needs to be done? 

i have tried to live my life to is fullest 

every min of every day 

but that does not seem to be enough for some people 

what makes me happy seems to repel people away  

to tell you the truth 

i would be perfectly happy with nothing 

except for my imagination and the open road 

this world is caught up in the material things 

some people think that fancy cloths 

and 200 thousand dollar cars can give you true happiness 

when all they do is dull the pain 

for someone who has accomplished so little 

i seem to have so much figured out 

for knowhere is for the geniuses

I can totally relate. I'm 24, finished with college, for now, and I still don't know what I want to do! I think we are normal :)...we can do whatever we want!!! But I can understand feeling pressure from other people to figure things out quickly, I'm glad you wrote this. I don't feel so alone :)
