My Way

My Way

A Poem by Sam Freeland
"

and my choice

"
mindless we are not
minded we have become
the ones doing the minding
are those whom we are from
 
they gave us our lives
and oh so much more
what they strongly believe
are us to the core
 
being happy with our lot
means so much to us
there will always be someone
to whom we can fuss
 
stay within the boundaries
and you will always know
there is a meaningful path
that shows the way to go
 
wandering far afield
you will be on your own
to you life will not yield
better enjoy being alone
 
we all have a choice
to beat our path today
we will live with that choice
let's hope yours is okay
 
if you ever change your mind
about the path you own
be ready for the trouble
persevere without a groan
 
you will be able to say
to those who think you wrong
I will live life my own way
I have known this all along
