The Time is Present


I don’t know if I can succeed,

But if I don’t step out,

The doors of opportunities will vanish

 

It’s time to go, don’t fret,

Just remember how I got here,

Don’t look back, just continue

 

The feeling of scared is natural,

The future can’t be foreseen,

For nothing is perfect

 

But maybe my imagination will help me,

To form my tomorrow, the way I see it,

And if complications arise, just compromise

 

What if I fail? and all my actions collapse?

No, the time is upon me. Now or never,

Each moment of hesitation, is a loss for time

 

Have courage, stand tall, and stick to my guns,

Conquer, and even in defeat, rise again,

Failure is knowledge to learn, and grow stronger

 

The time is now, and I know what I must do.

Keep pushing forward.

I am a nerdy person, who is into Star Wars, Marvel, DC, IP man, and Bruce Lee. I'm usually shy at first, but can be a corny comedy person. I enjoy being outside (even in extreme cold weather), being with family and friends. I like to watch movies, play board & video games, write, and listen to music. I currently am searching for a way for me to become one with inner peace, to help calm myself of my past mistakes and become stronger.
