Pearl
Location
I follow none, and,
Like the sun,
I rise to the challenge of each new day.
No reason to say
Each reason behind the way
I am
Who I am.
I am boundless
In this earthbound sky
Of possibilities
That fly by.
Blurs gone past
Sinking fast
Into the confines of history
But I'm not afraid of the pain of regret.
The dark looks I get
For the smile on my face
That I will not erase
As they look at the troubles
And question the bubbles
Of laughter that pop from my throat.
As I go down each road
Like a red carpet.
I own it.
This world is an oyster
But I'm my own pearl.
