My Destiny

Why am I here? Why am I in this space? My body is here, my spirit is not, what is the case? I look at my surroundings and examine objects closely As I’m sitting in a confined room that’s warm and toasty I tell myself I obviously don’t belong here This is not my destiny, but I know it’s near These spirits are too comfortable and complacent My spirit is solely focused on future emplacement At the same time I need these resources and networking opportunities So I can build bridges and uplift my community There’s a goal in mind with a strict timeline Cadence is key and sometimes I feel crazy like Einstein Deep down, I know it’s part of the process for me to succeed I’m just a vessel ready and willing to plant a seed.
