I could be the sun,
And blaze for everyone.
I could be the moon,
And be romantic for someone.
I can be the star,
And inspire anyone.
Or I could be the sky,
Which holds all these together as one.
I could fly away where ever I could,
I could sit in the water like a buffalo would,
I could be a butterfly to live for a day or two,
Or hide like a mouse so none have a clue.
I could pretend to be a singer,
A star in parties to long linger.
I could be a beautiful Gucci-clad actress,
Smile for some and dance to impress.
I could be a witty, nasty little leader,
Cheating people but a smart mind reader.
Or just be me, like the way I am now,
With nothing to lose like a sleepy cow.
"You have choice!", God said to me,
Showed me many doors but gave no key,
"You could be anything and that too for free.
Just imagine how beautiful this life could be".
