My Chance

As I tell myself to hold on, I listen for the whistle in the wind to give me the go.  
I take the chance to excel in life, in [this] life.  
I feel as lost as an infant crying for its mother.  
As I look up I see all the trees shaking.  Mother Earth has captured me. 
 Finally, a breakthrough!  
I see light at the end of the darkest tunnel.  
Now I know now that I have a purpose.  
I must keep going! I can’t stop now!  
This is my chance.
