M's Poetry
What I Have Is What I Want
I am afraid that if I get too much
I will lose touch with reality
and be left alone
I want to have enough
but just to get by
but maybe if I was well off
I would go mad
and lose my pride
I want always to be humble
and remember where I came from
and know in my heart
that the biggest accomplishment
isn't to bask in the glow
but to make it through the storm
is is too much to ask that this be done?
I don't think so with my loved ones by my side
nothing can stop me, nothing can take me away
no matter where I go, I know who I am
and that's all I need to make it through
faith and trust go hand in hand
and I know God does have a plan
If I had a choice I wouldn't want to know everything
it would take away the excitement and adventure
it would literally take away my life
and just what fun would that be?
I want to be suprised and live only for today
because tomorrow isn't promised
and who wants to plan when your deck of cards
can never be shown?
