A poem about fighting ahead and moving on to make my own way to the place I wish to be. |
-No Promises No Demands- by Keaton Foster No promises no demands I am just a man Doing what he can Living the best parts Trying hard everyday In every possible way Struggling to move beyond What was done In order to have a chance At something deemed impossible Fighting the hand of fate Determining my own One second at a time Never again will I be a victim Leading with my heart Using my words as a way To get others to see As a way to get them to understand No promises no demands Just a man ready to live For the first time in his life Where I will go from here is unclear But what is for certain is that I Won’t remain where I have been For the first time since I was a kid I have an undeniable chance God above has blessed me But along the way I was sure that he hated me So many bad things came my way When I was quite young When I was far too innocent to deserve What I was sure was his rage Foolish in my youth I refused To understand that what was done Was all part of a greater lesson That I had to undertake To get to where I am now And more importantly Where I am going from here No promises no demands Just a man ready to live That’s who I am… No Promises No Demands Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2012. |
