Who Am I
Who am I?
What do I need from you?
You could start by acknowledging I exist.
You could stop trifling with me.
You could take me serious.
I am not background noise.
I am something to cherish.
For I am the promise of a better today.
I am the urge to move beyond your past.
I am the trust two lovers feel.
I am the belief that anything can be accomplished.
I am the dream you have for a better life.
I am the spirit of great words yet unsaid.
I am the possibility of great deeds yet undone.
I am the vow you take to make other people stronger.
I am the anticipation a young child feels.
I am the chance to do what is meaningful.
So who am I?
I am all these things
And more.
I am... what you want to be.
I am hope.
I am opportunity.
I am the beginning of each new day.
The End
*For those who might be interested. I will be posting my cartoon 'Bob's your Uncle' on my homepage. A new one will appear every second day.
