I Might NOT BE

I might not have the strength to pull the huge logs
But I have the will power to stop you from cutting the trees
I might not have the money to buy you out
But I have the heart to feed someone needy

I might not have the power to change the whole world
But my little world is all in my power
I might have feared for everything unknown
But today what I know is all my strength

I might have trembled under the gun
But today no one calls the shots for me
I might have been silent when everyone talked
But today my words are as sharp as knife

I might have been bullied when I was a kid
But today my kids will stand up to the bullies
I might not have loved everything I should
But today I love everything I have

I might not have been clear in all my thoughts
But today clarity of heart drives my thoughts
I might not have been the best kid in the class
But today I am proud to still be a student

I might have wasted the food on my plate
But today I know what the world has lost through my act
I might have rushed through every moment in life
But today I stop and enjoy every moment

I might have never shouldered any burden
But Today my shoulders are free for all
I might not have been as polite as I should
But today my respects are with everyone of you

I might not be the best man on earth
But I know I can be better than what I am
I might not sing so well so you could enjoy
But I can always tune into the music in life
