The End of the Road
A terminal always comes to us
wherever we are in life's pathway
it can't be escaped no matter what
faced head on or else we stray
There was a time in my life
when thoughts were doom and gloom
no social activity withy no confidence
future looked to have little bloom
This I climbed out from
by taking in hand my pen
finding social correspondence
lifting negativity up from my den
Then confidence started to come
feeling sure better days ahead
looking back painful but essential
now feeling real street cred
Still feel inadequate at times
but remind myself these times past
be sure life has many lessons
growth comes if you hold fast
