Apparently, hardly anybody gives a shite

I found this in an old notebook that I used to write journal entries and random poems, rants, and etc. in. I wrote this many years ago. I had forgotten about it until I came across it a few hours ago. I kinda' like it:

I am a strange guy who reads comic books.
I wonder if I'll ever be popular.
I hear the whispers of unspoken words -
I see the gestures of held in emotions.
I want to be a famous actor - Someone who everyone else wishes that they could be;
Someone envied, loved, and adored.
I am a strange guy who reads comic books.

I pretend to be a superhero, always able to save the day and come out on top.
I feel the burden of responsibility trapping me in.
I touch the moon as I swing through the night sky.
I worry that I won't make a difference in life.
I cry when someone is treated unfairly.
I am a strange guy who reads comic books.

I understand that everyone won't always think logically.
I say that everybody should be treated equally.
I dream of being someone looked up to.
I try to do my best.
I hope for world peace...and happiness.
I am a strange guy who reads comic books.

I'm still somewhat of a strange guy. I still read comic books from time to time. I still try to do my best most of the time. I still cry before injustice. I still have these dreams and hopes. I still fear that I will do nothing about them in this life. Gee - wonder why I still like my crappy old writing..?

Please note that 5/1/2003 was "Mission Accomplished" according to GWB.
