The road less travelled

I remember when it was so dark and no body knew the past I remember how they used to laugh about how I wouldn’t go far I remember when there was no school just locked away I remember how they used to say there is no way I can make I remember when I was kept away I remember how they quickly dismissed my ways

I don’t remember the look on their face when I made my way I don’t remember the laughs they made because know I am far away I don’t remember when they called my name the achievement took my mind away I don’t remember how I made it through those days I don’t remember because now I have made my way successful I pray I don’t remember those dark days my happiness carries me away

I am glad I went the hard way and was never dismayed I am on my way today and the next day I am today what I have made no one showed me the way I am far away but some things in my mind are never far away I am coming to terms with my family and their ways I am fortunate to have learnt these ways even though it took many hard days

I am not afraid to show people the right way I am not willing to let my daughter be raised the same way I am not going to take her that way I am not ashamed to tell people the way I travelled to be who I am today I am never letting my heart be swayed We are together that is our way.
