The words "I will"
are powerful.
Yet,
it is you who can bring out that power.

We say "I will"
thousands of times.
but,
we have never done.

"I will" is a promise
to yourself,
to others,
that you WILL DO.

Still we break that promise
when it gets too hard.
Yet,
we promise things that are unheard.

we promise to do many things.
Yet,
these promises are unspoken.

We promise things that we already do.
we say,
I will survive.
I will love.
I will help.
I will defend.
I will learn.
I will work.
I will be in pain.
I will be lonely.
I will hate,
but I will forgive.
I will cry.

**I will be human.
