I want to live my life
as a true human being.
Flawed yet perfectly attuned to nature.
I want to be a fellow astronaut
and fly away to the moons surrounding us,
As galaxies swing us around in unison.
I want to be a writer
of love and fantasy and hope.
To drown myself in the world created by me.
I want to be a parent
who makes no mistakes.
Instead I will try to learn from the ones I do make.
I want to be me.
That’s all I have ever wanted to be.
