I am from what I love to do.
Wizards and warlords and wanders
fill my reading with wonder.
I am from what I love to do.
Linguists and languages and learning
from my textbooks I find my life.
I am from what I love to do.
Melodies and metronomes and musicals
found a way to bring magnificence.
I am from whom I love.
Puppies and pets and pleasure
fill my days with peace.
I am from whom I love.
Friends and fun and family help me
forget the negatives in life.

&quot;I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There&#039;s no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it. &quot;
