Irony of Being Me

The irony of being me still wanting to see What my self worth could be Destruction stands in my way Feeling like my body would soon decay To my dismay but.. still I stay Standing alone in the mist of the fight I know I can, I know I might, freedom I do stare in your face Pleading my case knowing this is a race I can't help but pace Hoping one day you would re-store me whole again is what I seek If I could have just one peek into the future I would seek Hoping one day you would re-store me

Sit down and relax, the ones running fast don't nescesarilly don't win the race and ultimately don't see the beauty along the way. As for self worth that increases when we come to realize we are a child of God. I enjoyed your poem it caused me to think.
