I took my mind <br />(wide as the world) <br />to school <br /> <br />and they thought me <br />how to think <br />small. <br /> <br />My heart <br />(they couldn’t tame at all) . <br /> <br />I thought…just wait <br />just wait ‘till I’m not small <br /> <br />and I’ll escape this place <br /> <br />but by then <br />I had turned into one of them <br /> <br />...the grown ups... <br /> <br />and had to learn <br /> <br />how to be <br />myself <br />all over <br />again.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-little-learning/
