What Should I Do?

Published by Family Friend Poems March 2011 with permission of the Author.

Which life shall I follow?
What path should I take?
Should I go left or right?
And make the same mistakes
Like I've done in the past.
Or should I move far away and start over again?
Because I'm a senior in high school and knew too much about the game.
The lifestyle? The people? And even about the money?
For me it all has to change.
So what do I do?
Because I've made big mistakes.
It's either this way or that way.
What more can I say?
I guess whatever comes down to it...
I'm going to change and make my grandma proud because she's up in heaven
With all the other angels like family members
I have lost in the past eight years, for goodness sake
So I guess I am going to change
But not for my own good
But for someone who always counted on me
No matter what mistakes I've made
Because in the end
I got a whole team up in heaven
Who want to see me make it
And when I hit that ball over the fence
You know I didn't do it for me
But for the loved ones
We miss very truly
