If you ever feel as useless as a white crayon, then you need to find someone who likes black paper, my friend.


The footprints in the sand on the beach align
And seem to condense my life into a line
Sometimes it curves, or gets lost in the tide
But I know somewhere, the marks are there to reside
As I look back, I see steps that I’ve taken
And old memories of my life seem to awaken
Each step is different from the following one
Trying to take the same exact step can never be done
So the only option in my journey is to move on
Going forward with my life, proud and strong
Sand remnants on my feet stay along for the ride
And my ambition to take on life becomes my guide
No longer will I allow worries, trouble, or even strife
On the journey that makes the footprints of my life
