I Try To Grow Into My New Position

I Try to Grow Into My New Position

i try to grow into my new position
i am passionate would you listen?
would you take direction?
every life step
is a response
to something that needs correction
i sit there,
wearing the jacket
that she bought me over twenty years ago
i never thought,
that when i first put that jacket on
i would be here,
i never thought,
that me
would find a way to ultilise the labels
and the words i had to say
i try to grow into my new position
