The Jump From Thought To Action

Oh the things that I could do The art, I could create All the dreams that would come true I could be so very great The goals, upon my belt And talents in my possession The souls, my gifts might help Completed tasks and lessons I could be in such good shape Eat healthy and be fit Feel proud, for goodness sakes Finish instead of quit A soccer mom, I could be Preparing home cooked meals Full of sensuality Giving my husband all the feels I could wake without prompt If I just accrued the habit I would launch my days off And beat the morning traffic I could learn what it means to thrive If I had the motivation I’d feel happy and alive I would reach my destination There could be a scenario Where my purpose was defined Despite where this life would go I’d feel it all the time If I could get beyond the “could” Just get passed the thought Act, where once, plan, stood Keep my attention from getting caught
