He is logical and he is exact,
I am abstract and I am uncertain.
Uncertain of my place and of what I will do.

I know you want to be an engineer,
these are his words,
these are the worlds he wants to be true.
But they are not.

Everyone has told me what they think I should do.
Be a doctor, no a lawyer but wait listen to me too.
There are so many voices
and so many opinions
Yet what I want is what no one seems to know.

I do not want to be an engineer.
I do not want my world to be made up of math and science.
I do not want to be immersed in sea of calculations.

I want to create
I want explore and see who I am.
I want to write and find the past.

He is a part of me as I am a part of him,
I know in the end what he wants is my success.

Our interests will be different
and only time will tell
If it will my interests that will guide me
or his wishes that mean well

I do not know for I am uncertain
of my place and of my choices.
But this is what will guide me
through the array of guiding voices.
