I've crossed the bridge
of wanting to be an
inspiration,
Seeking fame in places
that aren't for me.
no- I've burnt the bridges
behind me,
Left feeling lost and
confused
when looking ahead.

But now I know what I
want,
what's meant to be mine,
and how it will come to me.
So no, I don't want fame

I want to express my most
authentic self,
to let my light shine
as brightly as it was meant
to,
and to spread warmth like
the sun.

I will remember that even
in
the darkest nights,
the stars shine brighter,
The moon offers guidance,
it's glow soft and sure.

The calm ocean breeze will
remind me to breath,
While the stormy ocean
night
will teach me to let go
and let the waves carry me-
for fighting is futile.

So you see, no matter
where I am I will always have light to
guiding me:
the sun spreading my
warmth outward,
or the moon,
offering quite
guidance  and healing
when I  seek comfort in the
darkness

I just need to remember
to keep my head high
And to look around me
to appreciate the beauty  
that is apart of me.
