My Mission
As I stared out the window the tears still in my eyes.
I saw the vision of those I loved
As we had just said our last good-byes.
The ride was long and trying,
As the questions plagued my mind
Do I want the life that’s up ahead?
Or the one I left behind?
Two years is such a long, long time,
For going door to door.
In my reflection I thought to myself
There really must be more.
I dragged myself down off the plane
And stared smiling at the beach,
When a man turned me the other way,
Saying, Elder go find and teach.
I sit reflecting once again
As this day is my last,
Please Lord, this isn’t fair
The time goes way to fast.
And I stare out the window
The tears still in my eyes.
I see the Elders and friends I love
As we have just said our last goodbyes
The ride is long and trying
As two questions plaque my mind.
Do I want the life that’s up ahead?
Or the one I left behind?
