Lawrence S. Pertillar - Brazen In The Sun

Brazen sometimes.
Accountable all times.
But you will never find me,
Absent from my mission!
And that has been defined.
So there is no need for you to help me,
Find my way.
Just get out of it!
My way is mine!
No wishes do I have to be escorted.
I have found what feeds my appetite.
After spending countless sleepless nights...
With discouragements and disappointments,
I have overcome.
If you must think of me as being harsh...
A little heated with a bit of a peppered tongue?
Do it!
I will never show you shallowness.
I am not that one!
I know what I need,
For me to get what needs done!
Think of me as you will.
Whatever it is you may see in me...
It's me! Who I am!
I'm moving forward...
Not to backtrack!
This path I walk!
And I will do that...
Brazen in the Sun!
