In the Heart

In the Heart

I’m not sure just who I should be
The girl who is farthest away from me?

I need to see something that tells who I am
But all I can vision is just plain old me
I need to see something, but what do I see?

I’m looking for something
Nothing specific
But it has lots of meaning
It’s something terrific
It tells who I am
And who I will be
When I’ve matured
But who is this me?

Right now I can’t tell
What I will become
I’m still in my shell
And my feelings are numb

Just who am I now?
And what will I be?
I need answers to questions
About the real me

Am I the artist I was way back then?
Or am I the quiet girl who I was when I was ten?
I need to recognize destiny
But I don’t know where to look
I’ll sort through life’s pictures along the way that I took
What will I be?
Will I still see?
The real true me?

Life is strange
We all agreed
It takes a whole lifetime
To live and proceed

What will I draw on the canvas of life?
A shield of protection, a sword or a knife?
I can’t envision it
It just isn’t there
But I guess I will see
When I get there

It’s just so confusing
But I need to wait
So I’ll live to the fullest
And enter the gate

I’m growing older
This cannot be stopped
It’s a burden like a boulder
That I’ve almost dropped
But I must go on
And day after dawn
I will press on
My life is not gone

Now I ask,
So where do I start?
Isn’t it clear?
I start in the heart.
