What I Was
I was born and I shall die
Just like all the rest
And I reckon just like all of you
I had my share of test
Know that every fork in life's road
Has it's twist and bends
Is it not very sad yet true
We make and lose our friends
There is a meaning to this poem
I'm writing mainly for me
Everything that ever was
As it was meant to be
The reason that I was so lost
It truly seems to me
Was so I could write out my way home
For everyone to see
Perhaps someone will read my words
And relate to how I feel
I do pray that through my words
They can feed off my will
It's true that I have my bad days
As everybody does
But know in your hearts it's also true
Never revert back to what I was
