I Am My Own


Defining oneself

Finding oneself

A journey throughout and within

 

Decisions I make

Chances I take

Shapes me into who I am

 

A college degree

Will follow me

Evidence that I'm hardworking

 

Independently surviving

Personally thriving

Dorm life is right for me

 

This homework I dread

But do it instead

Of wasting my time with Netflix

 

Let's go work out

In the lounge hangout

My decisions will always define me
