In the Journey Ahead

"In the Journey Ahead"
(started 9/27/00. finished 10/3/00 - 16 years old)

I have miles to go
And things to do
People to see
And choices to choose

I have problems to solve
And tests to take
Work to do
And friends to make

I have a life to live
With parts to hide
Lies to say
And tears to cry

I have goals to reach
And weight to lose
Thoughts to think
And advice to use

I have people to help
And stories to tell
Miles to go
Just to get well
