Go For It

It’s scary to venture from out of your walls Into the realm of an instinct that calls Resistance is futile when the seed is sewn deep Whose curious fingers reach into your sleep When the spark of intent grows strong in your breast Like a flower breaks through from its wintry crest It won’t let you be, it’s dishonest to try To suppress and stay safe as your life passes by When you accept that you must take your chance To go with your calling and make your advance Then believe in yourself and steel your resolve To conquer the problems your quest may involve Whatever happens, you must follow your dream Keep going however hard it may seem Hold tight to the yearning that serves to inspire That drives you on forward with passion and fire Say firmly 'I Can' but not 'What If I fail?' Be of positive mind and you will prevail On your journey through all of the testing and trials En route to your goal that will end up with smiles. When triumph results from the course that you took Let no one dismiss it as nothing but luck Your prize will be earned for the grit you have shown Throughout your endeavour and the way that you’ve grown
