I Want To Be ....

I want to be free
Have the chance so many people had before me
The chance to care about other living thing
The chance to be brave in a scary situation
The chance to live one day as it comes and not have the worry
But here i am sitting by myself letting the world pass me by ....

I want to help
i want to help as many people i can
to look forward to tomorrow and not regret the past
to look up instead of down
to try and try again
to make the most of life , because you may not get another chance at today
But here i am sitting by myself letting the world pass me by ....


I want to enjoy being me
to give hope and love to people who needs it
to give respect even thought they dont give it back
to give honest feed back without the fall back
to just be me without the consent regret of faliure
but here i am sitting by myself letting the world pass me by ....

But as i sit here by grandfarther tree and grandmother water
i wonder if they will be a day when everything will fall into place
and just fit ...
but i am still here sitting by myself as the world passes me by ....

Author notes

the poem reminded me of the story someone told me , which stuck to me and to this day i remember it .....

    I love your poem, but found it a little sad.. One only has to stop sitting by grandfather tree and grandmother water and get up and go do all they want to do in life for their wishes to come true..
