verbal pursuit


I looked outside my window and saw reflected off the pane

The poor disisions of my peers and all they had to learn in order to gain.

Never once did I resent them, hate them or judge.

But it dissapointed me that they couldn't see all that there was.

This world offers so much, all you have to do is reach and grasp.

Your short comings are excuses that aren't worth the oxygen gas.

I brave my sails and harness my ship.

I master the skills of my trade and write down this script.

Never once did I ever let myself go down onto my knees.

I pray to my Father looking at the sky, into His eyes, and thank Him for helping me sail my seas.

I do not squabble, do not crawl, I have pride in being a detainee.

He gives me all this world, and no matter what you say I am grateful to be His appointee

I see the beauty in what is ugly.

I see the life in the decay.

I support those around me, friend, foe and family.

They know that I will gueard and uphold them tactfully;

I would never lead them astray.

I have no gospel to recite to show you where I stand.

I use my own words and hope I can be as close to an apostle in all that I am.

Not one word form a peer, wether friend or foe

Will change the fact of the knowdledge that I know.

So if I can finish this on a good note, with furthur a'deux I'd like to say

That Everything is Awesome, so go and have a blessed day.

I am a self reliant individual who is greatly motivated into pursing myself, finding things to achieve and to simply bask in the greatness this world has to offer and one of those things is knowledge so therefore my education!
