Dangling In Space

Dangling in Space

Finally need to get a few things straight
The longer we put off and have to wait
Right now is best time to do something
Put off and more loss and pain will bring.

In the here and now we should believe
Which will be best time for us to receive
Maximum return on each investment
And problems in future start to prevent.

Why wait around until last minute my friend?
When rope we are about to reach its end
Then fact you will have to finally face
Did find yourself lost dangling in space.

Is this where you find yourself sometimes?
