I get caught up with many battles, played on my shelf
Each time words are left, my imagination wishes to carry them on
They are keeping my shelf full, I just can\'t keep up
Each day I greet many dogs I empty it with ease
To create the reflection I desire, it must be only love, respect and peace
From this moment forward boundaries are in place
To see every human is in their own race, as I must keep focus on my own pace
Dancing like no one is watching, singing down memory lane
I\'m about to lose control and yet stillness does remains
No guilt will turn me round, no pressure will make me fold
Each time I take that breath in, I blow clean my shelf untold
After years of guidance, nothing will ever remain
As each moment is freshly new, in eyes that reflect my name
That\'s the \"who\" I shall retain, when walls of shame are closing in
I was the only one to blame, forgiveness holds many names
