Cookies
Frozen minutes are melting slow
 Two paths ahead which should I go?
 I never expected
 myself to be so confused
 So lost in what I want
 And what do I do?
 My sister calls upon me to start making Christmas cookies.
 They are rolled in colored sugar
 then put on a baking sheet 
 Then they bake and come out perfectly
 Why is college not the same?
 I hate standing on my own feet
 searching for that perfect
 cookie cutter that I,
 will mold into
 I hate trying to search for it, without any guidance
 Life has all been planned out ahead of us
 And now I get the chance
 to draw a map and go
 But no, it is not that easy
 I am alone or so it feels
 A defected sheet of raw dough
 to be thrown in the trash
 with all the other used up or expired objects
 Another half empty soul
 Where am I supposed to go?
