When I Was Young

When I was young I knew I was special. I knew I was destined to do amazing things. I knew I was going to change the world someday. I knew I was placed on earth for a reason.

I knew it.

I just knew it.

But so much of what a youth knows to be true turns out to be a lie.

Like Santa Claus. Like fairy tales. Like the nerd always get the girl.
Like I am special.
