What I wish to do
And what I wish to be
Are not so far apart
Flung out upon the sea
For I can take a chisel
And hack and saw and chip
Away at the base around my feet
Exposing the edge of a lip
It is not a pedestal
That I stand upon
But the basis of my life
Hopefully of something strong
For my path is my own
My choices also, see
For what I do with my life
Is my own responsibilty
The tools I’m given here
Are not always what I’d choose
But that does not hinder me
They will not make me lose
Circumstances in my life
Change and grow and weave
Taking from me many things
But still much more they leave
Why I was in the beginning
Is not always who I stay
Because I grow and change
Becoming more each day
