Onward To Destiny Poem by RIC BASTASA

today i
must deserve a little break
for what
i just did

i've been talking
to myself
listening
and commenting
upon what
i think

i am not alone
anymore
i have become
my own
simple symphony
of voices

little voices
that celebrate upon
my wholeness

upon my own
self-proclaimed
independencies

today i shall walk again
the paths of
my choosing

i shall whistle
my dreams to the air
i shall be at home
with my own hands
i shall be confident
to the directions
that my feet
are taking me

for today i am
free
to fulfill the promises
of my
destiny


it is there
waving its hands to me
saying
through the whispers of
the wind

come ric, come
i am your destiny
i've been here
and always ready.
