Word Poem: India

On days when I have no motivation,
and nothing I do seems important,
and I can't seem to make a difference,
I wonder what it would be like
to be a million miles away.
If I was somewhere no one knew me,
if I could choose what to do each day,
if I didn't have to be somewhere
or do something
or see someone
if it was all up to me--no bills, no grades,
would I really do all of the things I dream
of doing
while stuck in a classroom or on some time clock?
If I went a million miles away, or at least as far as
India
would I find my motivation?
