A/N: Quite literally what the title says. And for the 100_poems challenge on livejournal, poem 8/100 and day 4. Enjoy.


Musings from a Young Light

I feel like writing something profound
but someone doesn't win an Oscar award
overnight –

Unless maybe I find something
that can save the world from impending
doom

But I won't be that lucky;
I'm not a fool that believes this world can
be saved

But that doesn't mean
I like to feel
unaccomplished.

I am not an adult yet
but I will be
soon

And maybe then I'll finally
have a way to clean this
rotten

World.
