Truth is no one quite knew what was wrong. Most times a person grows up gradually, while i found myself in a hurry. My muscles and bones couldn’t keep up with my body’s ambition. So i spent the better part of three years confined to my bed, with the encyclopedia being my only means of exploration. I had made it all the way to the G’s, hoping to find my answer to “gigantificationism”, when i uncovered an article about the common goldfish. “Kept in a small bowl, the goldfish will remain small. With more space the fish will grow double, triple or quadruple its size.” It occurred to me that the reason for my growth was that i was intended for larger things.

I had a dream my life would be
so different from this hell I’m living
so different now from what it seems
now life has killed the dream I dreamed
