A Boy with Dreams
by A. Gautam
Willy waited every night to wake up and turn into Batman.
He had the jaw that looked intimidating in a cowl,
and the perfect chin with a hint of toughness—
full lips—an embodiment of strength.
But he had the eyes of a poet—searching meaning,

he was learning to swim in the world—
growing up to be a man was tougher than it seemed.
He was a boy with dreams.
He wanted wings.

The moment the words were out of my mouth, I wished I could take them back. I didn't mean to hurt Keith's feelings. He is such a nice person, and he certainly doesn't deserve to be treated so poorly. I guess the stress from my job has been more than I can handle. Instead of taking my problems out on him, I need to deal directly with the people who create the stress. If only I didn't care so much what people thought of me at work, then this would not have happened.
