I was told I was everything,
But in the end people consider me as
Worthless,
Useless
As unwanted.
I was told I could be anyone,
Yet everything I consider as me and what I desired
Was destroyed
And hated.
I was told I can follow my dreams.
In the end, the were always broken down by the same person,
Saying, " It is too unrealistic, because
It's just a dream."
I was told I could love anyone,
But had to give everything I have
just to get a
Fragment of love.
So love is impossible for me.
I was told to live,
But each day they come to me
Spilling out their hearts.
Yet, when It came to me
I was ignored.
They told me to disappear.
They told me I can do anything and live my life,
Still in the end it was shut down,
As they exclaim, " How? How are you going to do it?
You can't,
You're not rich,
You don't have connections or opportunities.
You can barely take care of yourself."
Hypocrites, they are.
Worst of all, they are my family and my friends,
But I want them to
Watch me...
Watch me...
As I grow up stronger
From each and every step
Each and every fall and mistake.
In which I learn from.
I want them to watch me
Grow as a leader.
I want them to watch me
To I can become who I truly want to be,
That I long for,
That I dream of.
I want them to watch me,
So I can show them and others that you can't abide
By others words.
That actions are more important.
Your actions define you,
Not your name
Not your past,
Not your class.
It's what you choose to do.
Do you choose to be a follower
For the rest of your life?
Or do you struggle with change
To become a leader?
I want them to watch me...
In my steps
To becoming what I wish and
A leader.
