We Need Your Help!

We ensure that our young creators are fairly paid for their work, but all the content on VoiceBox remains free for you to enjoy on a safe, ad-free platform. To keep it this way, we rely on the generous support from readers like you.

Please consider making a donation, no matter how small. Every penny goes directly to supporting young creators, and it only takes a minute of your time. Thank you!

Man

Despite the shadows that surround me

And foes who try hard to ground me

I'm free to do whatever I please

Not one has been able to bound me

 

I try and conquer whatever I find

Fought battles of each and every kind

But, the toughest feud I've faced

Is none other than my own mind

 

God himself has sealed my fate

Left me the choice to amend its state

Now it all depends on me

To accept it all or to create

 

When in pain, I do not whine

I suffer a lot, but never resign

For undoubtedly, I shall prevail

And glamorous will be my shine

 

I was to be great since my birth

And great I did upon this earth

I am the best of God's creations

I am a human and that's my worth
