Corresponding Chromosomes

I wonder if those

Traits,

Those mistakes,

And late nights

Where I didn't want

To sleep

Were buried beneath

My nerves

All this time.

I can't control which

Chromosomes fate

Gave me, or

Which genes wound themselves

Together.

But, will I, too,

Grow up to be

A minuscule

Point on

No ones radar?

Will I grow up

To disappoint and

Stay in the same

Spot until all the

Breath

Just decides

To leave

My lungs?
