Time to reflect

On decisions

That have been made

Others postponed

And delayed

–
Where I stand today

May not affect tomorrow

So how do I quite know

If this is where I should

Go

–

So many questions

Yielding very few answers

The scenery does not change

If I just choose to

Stand here

–

The past 3 years

Decisions were not bad

But if I could go back

What would I instruct

That poor young lad

–

I might say

Act with confidence

And cause

What you do not gain

Is not quite a loss

–

Move quick

And stay nimble

The world will not wait

for your heart delayed

its that simple

–

Fear holds you

Hostage at blank point

But behind the gun

Is no ammo

It holds you

Until you let go

–

Youth is fleeting

Do not become to attached

From your young wirey hands

This gift will be quickly snatched

–

But do not lose hope

There is no reason

What you lose one year

You will find stronger

In another season

–

Patience is key

But do not get complacent

Words striking and true

But you truly have to face them

–

In the end

Know your goal

Or destination

There is no minute hand

When the clock is wasting

–

Finally push back

Word hard

And stay committed

When it is all over

You will be glad you did it

–

I hope that in another few years

I can read this back

And have new wisdom

To share

–

But for now

I hope to own these truths

So that I may push on

A time to reflect

Is a time for my heart

To be reset
