Before It's Too Late

I believe in horoscope,
the stars aligning, chance meetings, 
destiny aligned, people put on our path, 
the map of our life, missed opportunities,
decisions that alter our journeying.

Especially as the years advance, I believe
in struggling to exploit our potential
so we don’t leave our mission half done.
