There are some realities in life which we all must bow to.Though we can try to fool ourselves and be convinced that certain targets can be achieved, certain barriers can be overcome, the truth ultimately knocks us out like a boomerang when it comes back in the form of failure.
So when you shove your face into your palms and cry your eyes out,I'll be passing by you,giving that winners smirk,telling you...I warned you.
You see...I was always right.When you were daydreaming of being the next big novelist I was quietly telling you to listen to your peers and take up tax law.Of course those words fell on deaf ears and you went ahead with what you thought was right.15 years later...you now live in a 1 room rented apartment;not one bedroom house,but one room house,state benefit is making you barely survive...something that you could have avoided.And while you smash your head in frustration and agony on your writing desk, I whisper something more painful to you "Follow what you like and success will follow.Is that not what you told me?".
With a tearful, rage filled face you lift the reading lamp and hurl it at me.But I'm not real.I'm just the warning words of a concerned friend whose wisdom HAS made sense...only a little too late.Suddenly a fear grips you from within...you hate to write now.All that you once dreamed of,all that you thought was your life,...now all of a sudden...."WHY!"
Or is this just the night before dawn?
