Who We Are

In a sky of darkness there was one star
That one star shined brightly
It gave us a reason to go on
It gave us a reason to be.
We were no longer afraid
Afraid no longer to be alone
Traveling the unknown
Traveling at times on our own.
Sometimes there was a hand
A strong hand which we could hold
To protect us from danger
To shield us from the cold.
There are lessons in life
Lessons that we have learned
As the hands upon the clock
Have rapidly turned.
People pass by our life
In and then out
We're left to wonder why
And causes us to doubt.
But forward we march
With our eye on the star
For we're not what people want
us to be
We are us, thats who we are.

This really hits home, because I've recently had a friend go out of my life, just as you describe. It wasn't just me, there's another mutual friend who's also puzzling over 'what hoppened?' but now we're resolved to stick together through thick and thin, and the heck with Ms. Movealong.

Hey you don't have to be perfect-=-I am and it's not as great as you may think--a few flaws make you human!!!

We are who we are--some naturally while some have to work at it! Some are natural poets (YOU) while others can attempt to be but don't have that natural rhythm

Well it's been a long road back, but I still have some more miles to go before I am 100%..if that ever happens.

Very true... we can't be who others want us to be no matter how hard we try.
