The Few, The Proud

Overeager and underprepared
Too excited to experience
All the things!
Even though all includes some
Like distaste, disaffection, and disgust.
And I am the object, never the actor.
It must be that
eagerness and zeal
that bright-eyed optimism
Is reserved for those
Who can defend their rights to it.

It's not for everyone.

  1. I disagree. I think it's like faith. For some people it's easy, for some it's difficult. Some people lose it and never find it again. But I think it is possible for all people.

    Says the girl who has lost her faith.

    Aaaand now I've convinced myself you're talking about something different and more specific than I first thought.

    Bah, I'm posting it anyways.

Comments are always welcome, unless you are going to be mean, in which case you can go straight to hell.

Please leave at least some form of name so I don't get all paranoid and think you are a stalker or my mother.
