All I Want is This...

I don’t want much, I just, want to be a good son, so I can see the pride of my mom and dad, want to be a good brother, so I can see him looking up to me, want to be a good friend, so I can see my friends happy when they’re with me, want to be a good student, so I can see my teachers as proud as my parents, want to be good at my job, so I can see myself earning money, want to be a good artist, so I can see my drawings spreading a message, want to be a good poet, so I can see people smile while reading my poems, want to be a good story-teller, so I can see the sparkle in the listeners eyes, want to be a good martial artist, so I can see the end of suffering and injustice for those I can help, and I just hope I can see what more there is to see, so I can be something more than just ME…
