Reflection

You'll always find me
Exactly where I want to be,
You'll always see me
Fighting for what I believe.

You'll always catch me
Excusing myself to see you,
You'll always know me
As the one who won't quit.

Among the strong and stubborn,
I hold hands with the compassionate,
I walk with the supporting,
I welcome the sensitive.

Connected to the wild,
The weird, the free spirits,
The creeps, the hurt,
The wounded, the healing.

I spend my days learning
To do more than just talk,
To write as much as I think,
To educate my mind and body.

I train with warriors,
Who kill weakness,
Who bleed it out,
Breathe it out,
Sweat it out, love it out.

I wonder how much I'm worth,
How much I can get for a diamond soul.
How on earth can one know
If what they learned is enough.

I wonder if it matters,
How many houses you had,
How many cars you kept,
How many dollars you spent.

I wonder if I loved enough,
Men and women,
Did I give enough,
Without being asked?

Did I selfishly,
Blindly walk the streets
Looking for nothing
But my own satisfaction?

Could that be why I never found it?

You'll always find me
Exactly where I want to be,
You'll always see me
Fighting for what I believe.

You'll always catch me
Excusing myself to see you,
You'll always know me
As the one who won't quit you.
