All I Need is My Own Determination
I have my belongings,
my family and friends,
and all the simple things
that help to meet ends,
but to rely on another heart
is emotional suicide.
In a world where living
is nothing if not trying,
I am the only one giving
breath to keep me from dying.
Determination is the breath
which fuels my whole self.
Maybe a day will come
where I must try life alone.
My life has always come from
the will of my own.
Without my tenacious mind,
my life would be unlived.
