I encourage others to do the same!)

Not For Me

Walking steadily along this path
   chosen for me by better people
Sometimes I pause and take a
   breath, wonder where it is I’m
   going, exactly
But they don’t like questions, so I
   keep my thoughts tucked inside
   and I pad along slowly
Moving purposefully toward the
   end I don’t know, but that I’ve
   prepared for my whole life

Sometimes, I live my life for everyone but me.
