I slow my heart beat,
I breathe in slow
though it hurts,
I take a second look
at the life I live.
What choices have I
now that I’m here?
Circumstances bringing me down
but a hope remains
that no one can take from me.
What does it mean
when it’s never easy
but when has anything
worth living for
been so easy?
I stand against the wall,
time to face my fears,
time to be brave
when my body shakes
and my mind tells me to run
the other way.
It’s time to grab hold of my dreams,
no more chasing them down,
no more wishing that things
were different when all you can change
is the now.
