THIS IS WHAT I WANTED

This is what I wanted,

This was always my desire,

To dream and achieve,

To blow candles and tread on paths I know not.

This is what I wanted,

For the world to read and get inspired by my writings,

To be the light in someone's darkness,

To be the message everyone awaited for.

This is what I wanted,

Call it fame, I call it grace.

I knew this was to be my motivation

To keep penning and exploring.

This is what I wanted.

Not to be perfect but be appreciated,

To be loved and of course, self-drive,

This will take me places.

This is what I wanted,

To be in one accord with the human race,

To be assured I am a great poetess, a writer,

And nothing can erase the little intelligence in me.
