My pride is my shield, My dreams are my compass, My happiness is my weapon: I'm Gonna Be

I'm Gonna Be

Author's Note:

This is a poem that I just thought of and wrote because I felt happy. I am focusing on voice and word choice.

People ask me what I wanna be,

I tell 'em what I'm gonna be,

I'll make myself a site to see.

I might just be a superstar,

A singer with eighteen sports cars,

An actor with a soda bar.

I might be the next Lady G,

If anything at least I'll be,

A person who is happy
