A Journey to Embark

Just something I wrote when I wasn't sure what life was about.

The world is an ocean,
And I am a sea creature.
What kind of fish am I?
Am I a shrimp?
Am I plankton?
Am I to think ‘till I die?
No, that’s not true,
That can’t be right.
If it is, then why am I here?
What if I could mould,
My life to what I want?
Now’s the time to prepare!
I’ll eat the seaweed
That is knowledge.
And so I’ll learn to grow.
From a shrimp to a shark,
A weed to a whale,
But which one? How do I know?
That’s my choice,
To make right now.
Based on how hard I work.
To do my best,
To break the net,
No matter how much it hurts.
That’s my decision,
To work to the top,
To grow from shrimp to shark.
It is my goal,
It is my dream,
It is my journey to embark.
