The future has been staring me in the face lately.
Everything has hit me that I have to live a life soon
I think to myself, “I’m young, I don’t need to focus on it yet.”
But I want to, and I do need to
I realized, after all that happened
After all the hopelessness I felt and still feel, to a point
I realized that I’m my own person
I’m the only one who limits myself
I was like a flower, who took a whole year to bloom
But now that I have
I see that I am a free human being now
I can do whatever I set my mind to
Sometimes my own thoughts, voices, make me doubt
Cloud my inspirations
But if I want to sing, I’ll sing
If I want to dance, I will dance
If I want to make a difference, I will
I don’t care what “slows me down”
I am determined to live my life and be happy with it
And this is what I’ve learned, upon realizing all this:
God lets things happen for a reason
Heartbreak opens your mind, and fairly quickly
As long as you’re paying attention, anyways
Yes, some people take longer than others
And that’s okay, but it’s more hurt than you’d prefer
But as long as you learn what you need to learn, God lets it happen
He says, “Take your time, love.”
And he doesn’t need you to open up to him if you don’t want to just yet
But he does make sure that the sooner you do, the sooner you learn
That’s the most important thing
You are important
I am as well
Every human being on the face of this planet has a reason
It’s true, no matter what your beliefs
Why would you be here otherwise?
If you don’t believe it, then I’m sorry, I can’t convince you
And just like Him, I will let you take as long as you need
I’ll be patient
I just hope that none of this is too hard to understand
Just remember this, you can’t drive on a closed road
I’m on an open one now, and I’m on my way
Living life day by day
My question is:
Are you?
