The coming time

by Julie   Apr 3, 2006


The things that people want in life are just a fingertip away

I'm scared to move forward when the chance is now

why can't i just take the chance and run with it

run as far as my strength can take me

the past is powerful thing that prevents people from doing what they want, what they need in life,

it holds them back from the lives that they wish they could live

am i going to make the same mistake that so many people in my life has made

am i going to settle for the second best

i pray to god at night that i have the courage to rise above that dark past that lingers over my head

to rise above the second best and go for what i want

even when the stars are crossed against me

i pray my faith, my strength will hold and I'll break through the black clouds

and reach that eternal sunshine that people search for so diligently

will i make it - i don't know

therefore the future is more mysterious than the past could ever hope to be

-i really didn't know what category to put this one under, PLZ COMMENT
