I learn, I grow.
I make decisions in life,
and I reap what I sow.
I weigh the consequences
of wants and needs.
Controlling desires,
while exploiting good deeds.
The image in my mind,
I consider the worth.
Not being certain
then indecision takes birth.
I know all my weak spots
and how to break myself apart
But you don't know those things
or even where to start.
Yet others do,
and they know it well
And just like that
I'm under a spell.
It has to be taught,
it always does.
Or the eagerness to learn
maybe that's what it was.
A source of body heat
a warmth unique
The warm fuzzy feeling
this bespeaks.
I'm always the white piece
in the game of chess
That's how society is
can't help it I guess.
You egg me on
like a motivator of sorts
I wouldn't be in this situation
were it not for your exhorts.
All these You's
of different people I name
because as I read them,
they are not all the same.
I never know what to do
In these sorts of situations
To think with a rational mentality
or to give in to temptations
So the image is still in my mind
Tossing thoughts to and fro
I think, I worry,
I learn, I grow.
