Solo Act Poem by Blessing Ekpe

I was born with free will,
equipped with the power to make my own decision.
Vested with talents and beauty.
In this life am all alone.
Final decision rests within.
I choose whether to lead or be led or a copyist,
I choose whether to succeed or fail,
I choose whether to laugh or cry,
I choose whether to be free or captive.
I create and mold my own destiny by my thoughts.
I did not choose where I was born
But I did choose how my future will be.
My world is what I make of it.
The riches of life are mine.
I can choose to have it or let it pass by.
So why must I blame you for what I have control over.
So why must I blame you for the challenges of life.
So why must I blame you for my indecisiveness.
So why blame you for me.
You have a choose, so do I
It is a solo act and I am the actor.
