What I am
Is indeed what I am
But it is not everything I will be
There is more to me than you see
More to me than anyone here knows
I will break out
I will succeed
I will be loved and I will love
This place is like a prison
Limiting
Confining
But I am unlimited
I will
Be free
And my freedom
Will make the world smile
She sponsored a young woman
In Colombia one year;
Then watched her age in pictures –
A world away,
A world away
She saw a smiling beauty
A diploma in her hand;
A picture worth a thousand thanks –
To see a dream
To reach a dream
She welcomed the young doctor
Out at the airport gate;
A daughter’s love, a mother’s pride –
‘Tween two who’d never met
Who wept when they finally met
