Enormous Expectations
I don't wanna quote books I haven't read
nor books that quote books that I haven't read
but yes I grew up with enormous expectations.
Now 20 years into adulthood I must admit they were right:
you set out to change the world, but
the world puts you in your place instead.
Thank grace for defense mechanisms,
so I don't always have to relive all my disappointments.
