That I Get

Janet Kuypers, November 27, 1998


there are so many things
that I’ve wanted

and there are so few things
that I get

and no, I don’t know how
to get all the things I want
well, I’ve learned that
that’s the hard part sometimes

and I’ve learned how to deal

with the good and the bad
and no, I don’t know that
this is good
I just have to learn how to
take it all in stride

and yes, I can still dream
that my life is different
and I can dream

that you are by my side
and I can dream
that there will be a happy ending for me

yes, I suppose I can dream

people keep telling me
that it could be worse
that I’m a lucky girl

and no one can really know
what it’s like
to wear my shoes
and live my life
and feel what I feel

but they try to tell me anyway

there are so many things

that I have wanted
and I always have to
rearrange my plans
and rearrange my ideas

well, at least on the surface I do

maybe this way I’ll be able to
keep dreaming

this way the days don’t seem so long
