Branding Me

Some people dislike labels because they feel restricted and limited.

Me? I’ve always wanted one. To me, it gives me a sense of belonging in this world. A sense of purpose, focus for my life. Oh how I’d love to be defined.

My identity has been
Something I’ve wanted to know
Who am I what am I
Where do I go

When fulfillment
Is what I long for
Where do I fit
Who would want more

Of what I have to offer
Of what I have to give
What’s my reason for giving
How do I live

Day to day without
Knowing my reason for being
Why was I created
What was the Father seeing

When he made, molded
Me into His image from the womb
I’m sure I’ll find out
Before I hit the tomb

Maybe one day it’ll hit me
Smack me upside the head
Maybe one day I’ll get it
Before I drop dead

Of curiosity
Trying to figure my destiny
Surely it’ll hit me
Who I am, who I’m meant to be
