Who Will I Be?

A Poem

Who Will I Be?

I will choose who I will be

I played their parts up till today

A dancer on call for any stage

A chef ready to fill your needs

I cleaned and cleaned and cleaned and cleaned

My care doled out indiscriminately

Until I realized I had a choice to make

It is them, or it is me

That’s why they fight to keep you busy

To hide your options and keep you from getting free.

Everyone has so many expectations on them from youth onward, but at some point, we all have to take the reigns to our own lives and start riding off on our own course.
