Defined By Mistakes
Location
I was an accident.
Definition:
Simple as that.
The day I came knocking on my mother's womb door,
everything changed from
party college life to
adulthood.
I was rasised by hard workers.
Definition:
Nams mom and dad.
Who did what they could to give me
not what I wanted,
but what I needed.
I didn't have the nicest clothes,
didn't have those popping trendy gadgets.
What I did have,
was a neverending
imagination.
I fought hard to be where I am
endured what others may think
only happened in movies.
Death and family is what kept me
going.
Definition:
I suffered the pain,
of not losing one,
or two,
but three
loved role models who wanted so badly to see
me walk across that stage
with a diploma in hand.
It wasn't easy being me,
but I had me who believed,
that college was the only way
to fix the mess my accident made.
Maybe one day
I will learn to fly
Maybe one day
I can change the world
but the only way I could ever
make these dreams a reality,
is to do what I can
to not repeat my past.
