momma, i swear

momma, i swear,
one day
i’m gonna change the world!
i just need you to be patient with me.
that’s all i need,
just a little bit of patience, please.
i am flipping through this dictionary as quick as i can,
you see, i just need to find the right word!
it’s in here,
somewhere,
i just haven’t quite found it yet.
but soon i will.
and then, momma,
i swear
i’m gonna change the world.
