What

By Mike Bullock

                

            What am I going to be today
            The choice is mine and mine alone
            To walk in love, discarding doubt
            Or will I sulk, depress and moan
            For I have got an off, on switch
            Independent of my Lord
            Decisions, they are made by me
            And seem to be of my accord.

            It’s me who loses, every time
            I end up judging what I am
            A selfish hermit in his cave
            Who wants his sandwich filled with jam
            If I take my mind off me
            And choose to look the other way
            Maybe then, my inner love
            Would overturn my world of gray.
