Into the Future


Life simply goes on

But sometimes, people do not

And fail to look into the future

Not uncommon or unheard of.

 

We are all afraid

To look into our own selves

And tell us what our true purpose is

Yet we claw and kick to seek life.

 

Despite our shortcomings,

I believe humanity

Has potential to fight through it all

Even with such uneven odds.

 

So I stand here, strong,

Fighting my doubts, fears and loss

To become someone great and lasting

To look on the uncertain future.
