Cebalrai


Cebalrai

I am Cebalrai

People expect the best in me

I am Cebalrai

My folks expect the God within' me

I am Cebalrai

I should remember the cross before me

I am Cebalrai

My path should be a straight line right to eternity

But

My path is infinite

My path is curved

I go in both directions

Avoid Christian words

The only words I listen to

are hers

Maybe I am not Cebalrai

I am me.
