What Is Right

Why does the one thing I want to be, seem so far out of sight

Even though I try with all my might

Everyone around me only seems to want to put a fight

My family says it's not right

But what is so unrighteous about wanting to write

Not even fate seems to want my hard work to take flight

Circumstances are causing little pieces of me to die out like a light

All I want to do is put pen to paper and write

So tell me why it's not right

I lay awake trying to find the answer at night

But all it makes me do is wonder

What in the world am I doing that is right
