The man I wanted to be
I look inside me,
Trying to see,
A vision of the man
I wanted to be,
With wisdom in his eyes,
You could tell he was wise,
When he was talking
there was never a lie,
And though he wasn't perfect
you could tell the man tried,
The twists and turns of life had shaped him,
And he never let it break him,
Life is hard, but he was harder,
This took him higher,faster,farther,
I open my eyes after seeing these things,
Wishing, wondering "Is that man me?"
