My Life Journey Has Been Unplanned
Mostly my journey was unplanned
I would fall into stuff
Or get pushed into it kicking and screaming
God had a plan
I never did
Things that weigh on me are mistakes
I thought I would never repeat again
But I kept repeating them again and again
And I will again
Because I trust everybody
In my heart I always know that if you are kind
others will be too, and yes, they do pretend
Some of them but not all
Because some simply
are not kind
But do I get that? No. I do not.
My life has been a series of
I don’t want to do that! I do not like her!
I do not like him! And yet, part of me always does
I kind of like everybody.
I am a giant puppy.
I will not change.
I will always jump in your lap
Begging you to take me home and love me.
I think it is because I started out not feeling loved.
