Prophecy : Creative Writing

written by Poet : Joseph


My mother once told me

that when I was a baby,

and she held me in her arms,

she heard a voice tell her

that one day, I would help people.

 

Now, as I think about that story,

I wonder what have I done

for the good of the world?

What have I contributed to our society?

As I grow older,

my time grows shorter,

and I feel as if I have done nothing worthwhile,

and that the world is no better off

with me being part of it.
