‘ i ‘
I thought it was about me, then the world told me to shut up! and do as told, so ‘ i ‘ accepted. Then rebelled and slammed the door in its face and found a new door that led me to ‘ i ‘.
I never knew how to handle myself on my own, so I sank and tanked, but eventually it was not my time, so I’m back.
I was told to hold my horses, I found out that I don’t have to wait for people who never waited for me, so I move to stay afloat and I head the pack.
I was never fed with a golden spoon so I found my spoon and fed my soul and mind, I was always happy and that’s what matters most, gold or steel they all do the job.
I never got lectured in life, so ‘ i ‘ lived.
I never thought you couldn’t, so you did and ‘ i ‘ was happy, I was a true believer in the power of one, and you are living proof, I can say the same.
I loved to play and found out that grown ups are a boring crowd, so I join them when I must, and when I do, they understand where I come from and wish they were ‘ i ‘.
I don’t have to get it my way, but eventually life’s highways throw what I want in my face at speeds I can’t digest, so ‘ i ‘ rests to understand.
I wish, I dream, I think, I watch and observe, I keep learning from you and them, I stay open while others are closed, I know what you don’t know, you know what I don’t know, thats life, and we meet half way.
I wait a little longer than normal people do. I move faster than others walk. I do it my way while others are asking why? I reply why not? it’s once you live, who knows?
I was told not to blow my horn, then they said please do, I never listened in the first place, that’s why I know what’s coming your way while you wait.
I have no taste, or maybe I have the greatest taste, I dress casual and respect dressed up, I act childish and try harder not to fall victim to adults pretending to live, ‘ i ‘ try.
I ask questions that seem weirder than weird itself. I don’t wait for answers so they follow, that way I can get on with my life one breath at a time and not pause.
I love and live, live and love, hurt and get hurt, I know that everything happens for one reason or the other, whatever that reason is ‘ i ‘ accept the consequences as part of the package.
I have seen people come and go, I have witnessed fools by the bundle and greats by the truck load pass me by, I follow in their footsteps, knowing one day I too will be great, its ok to say that, I too want to be great and leave a legacy.
I write because I feel I can be me, I speak because I can, I talk to strangers and friends alike, I like to share a thought or two, I seek and find, I fail and win, its all part of the game.
I know risk exists, I ask what is risk? people define it to their likings, I say this” everyday you go to sleep you risk never waking up, every day you leave your home you risk it all” yet we live, no one on earth knows when is when.
I want you to know this,’ i ‘ was made to be boasted, applauded, cherished, loved before you go looking to please people, please the ‘ i ‘ in you, you are worthy, you were not born to be a nobody, you were born for a reason, nothing would be the same without you, I know people that would die to be you, or should I say ‘ i ‘ ?
I know you know what ‘ i ‘ means to you, so show me what I can do and I’ll show you a better you.
There is no place for doubt in ‘ i ‘ I know, doubters will exist with or without ‘ i ‘, so in the end it all boils down to you, to accept the power of ’ i ‘.
