Verlena S. Walker Poet I do not know?

A Maze

Afraid to take a chance?
Want to party?
Want to dance?
Want the thrill of the game?

Only you fulfill your soul.
Know your hype.
You set your tone of life.

You got all this life to live.
Why not live it real?
Get in your ride and drive.
Put your eyes in the sky.

Take the scenic view.
Only you fulfill your soul.

Want to achieve all that is possible?
Want to seek greatness?
Only a maze to decipher.
Nothing is amazing.

You got all this life to live.
Why not live it real?
Get on a plane and travel.
Take the scenic view. 

Never looking back!
You control your hype.
You set the tone of your life.

Seek and you shall find.
Knock and the door will open.
Ask and forthcoming is an answer.
A maze and not amazing!

Burgeoning forth,
We are our own creation.
Afraid to take a chance?
