the person I long to be

my friend cindy shared this with me yesterday...

the person I long to be

the day light breaks again
another day has begun

but still no sleep has come
my body is weary

my mind overworked
I lie awake thinking

but what I am unsure
I need to break free from the cycle I endure

everyday is the same and the nights are undistinguished
I feel as though I am being pushed along with the tide

unable to break free from the everyday flow
this is not me I need to change, before time takes over

and I am unable to change
I need to be freed from the grasp of ordinary

and become that person I have always longed for
express myself in every way, and conquer the dreams as I lie awake

then I may fall asleep and put my mind to rest
make changes in my life and help those in need

I would like to touch everyone's life in a positive way
and leave my mark on society before I fade away
