Ken Fepulea'I Poet Lyric

Human Being

I walk a mile to see the self in me that I believe to be, 
I knew the road I choose to lay my head to sleep is called my home,
times in need I could barely see that in myself I will set free, 
the act that held me down, something about me I could not see,
I lived a life when I decide that day I said that I don't care, 
so young, so bright, I dim my light, traumatized for me to share,
love me please regardless of what you heard and what you have seen, 
friends say that I'm only human, yes you're right, a human but who am I being?
My life will move in the direction I choose, 
this I know I have always been taught
that I choose to be a winner or lose, 
its entirely up to me its all in my thoughts.

Ken Fepulea'i

Ken Fepulea'I October 25, 2010 at 9:57 PM Hi everyone, thanks for your comment, much appreciated :) Hope I do write another one as I wrote this 2008 and did not plan to write anything else, my friend made me post this up, so I did for her sake. But to read the comments made me feel much more appreciated so thank you all once again. Maybe I will be inspired to write again, but as for now it is not on the agenda. "our lives will move in the direction of our thoughts" Happy day to you all :D
