Fame or Glory?

CATEGORY

just different

What is it I seek?

Is it fame or glory?

If I was to seek fame,

My life would be like a movie starring an unfamiliar character of my choosing.

To play me as me would be too cliche.

The beginning would start out as a young boy trapped in his own world,

Seeking guidance amongst strangers he consider family,

All the while figuring out that everything that glitters ain't gold.

Skip four scenes,

I am now an adolescence;

Reaching that stage in life where making it big and having fine women flock around me,

A wonderful dream, but as it stands the women I come across doesn't see the beauty within me.

Too sheltered I became by the same strangers that tried to mold me into them,

I am weird in their eyes.

Skip five scenes,

I am now an adult;

Going through the same struggles, but as time calls out to me,

my path has changed.

If I was to seek glory,

My life would be similiar, but not the same.

I play myself for nobody can play me as good as I.

At an early age I lost my mother,

At age 11 I lost my father.

Death has been a part of my life, but it does not taunt me.

I am comforted by those I lost for they are my angels.

They mold me to become what I am destined to become;

And as God guides me I will become that man.

Women are but a dime a dozen,

No longer will I think that in order to be complete I must have a woman by my side.

There are no scenes to skip;

There are no cuts.

Life is what you make of it,

And I intend to make the best of it.

So I do not seek fame or glory,

The only thing I seek is my destiny.
