Poetry: Enlightenment

The Chosen One:

I actually thought it was my time to go,
while watching my lifeless body below.

My pain was gone when the dark became light,
that's when I called out to my relatives that night.

They said to return, that it wasn't time to depart,
For I am the chosen one to save the family's heart.

As their servant of trust I'm to guide them through,
life's valleys and crevices, but with happiness too!

They told me of angels that are guarding my back,
One to guide me to riches, one to thwart any attack.

Telling my family to be assured with a nod,
we shall continue to pray to our loving God.

    Other people's opinions
    Do not define me!

    Only undermine
    My ability
    To choose
    The road less traveled.

    It is they
    That would
