My Plans

You may not have plans for the future
But I do
You might just like TV
And only have love for your boo
And that is fine if that is what you choose for you
But I’ve got other plans
Most of them from a long time ago
Way before I started to let my hair grow
Closer to a time when it was seeds I learned to sow
Or it was my chore the grass to mow
I made plans with a pen similar to this
When I was the same soul and spirit
Just my body different
I planned on a life beautiful
I planned that during and at the end I would be fulfilled
Yes there would be thrills, the good kind of chills, and of course spills
But I would always get up
Never give up
And in doing so I learn so much
Learn to thrive
Really know and appreciate what it means to be alive
Like I said
You do not need to make this choice
You can have what you want
Just worry about what you’ve bought
How much it costs
The color of your hair
What kinds of things you share
Only let one person see your body and soul bare
If that is what you choose I do not care
But it will not be what I choose for me
I want a life full and plenty
Exciting with love many
But like Forest Gump with only one Jenny
I chose this life for me
Now please just sit back and see
How you can make a love for thee
