What I Live For
I Live For…..
 I live for words on a page,
 The things I learn,
  My coming of age,
 The day I leave this place behind 
 And enter into a brand new time,
 I live for the laughs I share
 With relatives and friends that care,
 I live for someone to say
 “I love you, please be here to stay,”
 I live for the sun and surf,
 The water is all my home turf
 I live for what I create,
 The words I speak,
 The facts I state,
 I live to see my name in lights,
 I live to battle in all fights
 For myself and who I call friends
 Until such a relationship ends,
 I live for where rivers fall,
 And for my sister at her call,
 But what I hope to live for most,
 Is to remember my grandfather’s ghost
 A man I loved when he was around,
 My love for him is easily found
 This is what I Live For…
