I Have Become

Vaughn N. Haywood

The person I have become
 is not the person I want to be!
 I have walked up a mountain
 and climbed down a hill.
 I have sailed an ocean
 and swam a river.
 The person I have become
 is not the person I want to be!
 I have touched the sun
 and felt the moon.
 I planted a seed, but grew a garden.
 The person I have become
 is not the person I want to be!
 But that's just what I have become.
 A man, A friend, A husband, and your lover!
 I HAVE BECOME THAT MAN!
