Turning 21

21 years ago today
We joined the plethora of people on this world
As we took our first breath
And let out our first cry
That was the beginning of the struggle
The struggle to own our place in this world
The struggle to make a name for ourselves
And I hope that the culmination of our stay
Praying that it's far into the distant future
Has us as victors over our journeys
And not as villains in other people's stories
