Life's Destiny

Something about this nature calls to me
To set me free
Of this heartbreak I forsee

Inside, something stirrs
Though my destiny still blurs
But what do I prefer?

Should I care for a young one?
Or is that too much to be done?
Though, it seems like so much fun

Maybe help pets?
But it gives me the sweats
With all of life threats

Could be an actor?
Still that factor
I am more of a reactor.

Perhaspe a writer?
Making lives brighter
With a story that is a nail biter.

So which job is for you?
Whichever you pursue
Make sure your heart says it’s true.
