The Best That I Can

I awake this morning with anew bounce in my step I’m not certain where I’m going but I’m not there yet I just can’t believe how life changes everyday I am grateful and proud to be part of today. I seem to meet people from all walks of life They all want to leave behind the struggle and strife There is so much more if you only just look Go out and live it because it won’t be in a book. I can never remember me being this way As I drift slowly from the safety of the bay Everything I see becomes a part of me The more pieces that join in, the more that I see I am really quite thankful yet what is it I deserve? It seems I’ve found purpose and that’s what I’ll serve It gives me direction a new path to go The more that I learn the less I know. I wish to thank everyone that’s along for the ride With my heart on my sleeve, the emotions I can’t hide You all join together and make me who I am I hope with my heart I do the best that I can.
