The Chosen OneA Poem by Erica Ross
Do you know what it feels like to have the whole world depend on you?
Well at least that's how it FEELS The average person probably doesn't know this feeling No, the average person probably couldn't deal Now I'm not saying that you all don't feel the world on your shoulders too But I'm just saying, it's like I was born for this, and this wasn't born for you To risk my smile just to see theirs To hold back my own just to wipe their tears Some days I sit and think.. Is this the life God has for me? Am I The Chosen one? Yes, I am. I've collected the stories of those that have crossed my path I've turned their tales into great tragedies in my head And when I think about the life I have.. I'm like man, it's not that bad But my great peers bring about all these fears I know my destiny But I just wonder if I'll be around to see theirs ..You know, the feeling of uncertainty But I say, if you wanna know me forever Then it is so Because The Chosen one is who everyone wants The One who even God himself wants to keep close
