Poem Title:
Poem
Live life as if today is the last, In a lane with only one speed-fast, With a direction of your own to become someone, A twist of hope and faith will get the job done. With different sounds that flies from ear to ear, The sounds boom to the beat with fear, To give a hit with a meaningful symbol, Pounding in one’s head to a beat to making a heart feel full, So we all become full on the green paper we call money, But remember, in the wrong hands it can tear like a joke so funny. Use this as a reality check, ‘Cuz little poems like this is like a car wreck. A car wreck where your life flashes before, Giving you a direction to another world, another door. As the bigger picture starts to rush towards us, Thinking fast is the only way, but feels as a rush. A rush to make choices and become someone or just be another face, Just don’t make the mistake to give up in a race. The race has a beginning and an end, With one heart to either pull through-or turn around the bend. Where do you want to stand at the finish line? With your head laying on your resting bed, Being that person with only words that were said? Or having that heart and accomplished dreams to be remembered when you’re gone. A big thing to remember is it’s the deep words that can bring out the best or worst in one. And the basics of how we live is up to you, No matter what your past is or if you’re looked from others eyes as a fool. Take that step of hope and faith and use the key we all hold, And never let someone take it or ask for the key to be sold, ‘Cuz once behind those chains of wrecks and the past, The locks become heavy with more master keys to uncast. Only those who don’t give into the hardship of the rock, Will become that someone to the world of our own, And even then well have haters that don’t want you to be shown. Shown because of talent, hard work, and a heart so fresh and strong, And don’t listen to anyone who tells you you’re wrong, Wrong for taking that step into the reality of having a big dream, With the spot light coming down on you like the sunshines beam. So all that’s said it can be you, No matter how far through life you’ve gone you can make it through, Opening the chains that have buried a known face, Make it so you’re steps away from winning life-the long race.
