I go everywhere with my heart
Watchful not to be controlled by people's influences
I allow myself to view from their lenses
And analyze properly with my senses

My heart is a torch that
beams as I walk through the path of each day
Revealing the green snakes sneaking under the green grass
Shining on the gem within the dirt

Provides me with courage and strength
The drive to go the extra mile
The reason my face wears a smile
And above all, provides the check to remain ME to myself!
