goals:

i will break the chain;
i will be successful;
i will go to college;
i will follow my dreams;
i will be happy;
i will change the world.
i will change someone's mind.

i will not be another statistic.
i will not let negativity seep in.

this is my life.
i will determine my own path.
i am just water; they are rock.
but over time i will prove to erode them.

i promise. i will not break.
