The Real World

George, an unusual boy
Living an unusual childhood.
Environmentally friendly trying to save the world.
Will he ever learn what it is like in the real world?
The supreme lifestyle was never an option. Always doing things by hand
Drowned him out and making him moody.
Too many distractions.
Opposite moods just like day and night. Distractions all around to put him off. Always seeking someone to believe her
Teachers and parents nagging her all the time
Here world is full of crazy secrets,
And some possible fantasy too.
Damaging the world for their own good.
Will she learn what it is like in the real world?
