I want to bring you clarity. I want to cause you confusion—
To spread love, to reign in hate.
Let go of my anger, believe what is and what could be.
I want to be calm. I want to cause panic and fear,
To cause peace, to cause chaos,
Be the best and worst version of myself.
I want to be a saint. I want to be a devil,
To release pain, to unburden my mind, to get a good night’s sleep,
Freedom from my anxiety and self-doubt.
I want my past and my future. I want to inspire and spark rebirth.
To learn my strengths and weaknesses,
To cry, laugh, learn, focus, dream.
I want to remind myself of where I have been, where I am and where I could be,
But, above all, I want to give you life.
