Am I an angel,
Or the devil incarnate?
Now have to stand on
my own two feet
And listen to the beat
Of my heart.
What does this say about me?
I am not a loner,
I delight in eccentricity.
Troubled minds I can cope with,
The clover they live in.
Students who walk down my street
Don’t realise
It’s tough out there.
That’s not on the curriculum,
Life is not to play for fun;
But the sun also rises
On those who don’t run.
Commitment was essential.
I never really worked,
Just had causes
I believed in.
I did my best
With what little talent
I had.
