Legacy

Nothing is ever placed in stone.

Not the roots keeping a tree in place,

Nor the blood that flows in these veins of mine.

I will not be held accountable for the sins of my ancestors.

I will never make the same mistakes generations before have made.

Nevertheless I will surge forward, breaking those chains

That try to hold me down, stepping free of the mold made

By the people before me. I will learn from them, and

I will make my OWN legacy.
