I steel myself, galavanize, vitalize
preparing for the worst.
Faced with life, I calculate, premeditate
hoping for the best.
Reality barges in, exuberance,vehemence,
forced to look ahead.
Feeling annoyed, grumbling, grouching
wanting to just to hide.
I steel myself, perk up, pick up
my feelings from the floor.
Faced with life, I exercise, monopolize
my right a have a choice.
How I live, maintain, remain,
is largely up to me.
Life's a gift, commemoration, acclaimation,
for noone else to own.
I choose to stay, subsist, exist,
and see what morning brings.
