150: Not Afraid to Fail

I see what you are
But I will not be
I am stronger than you
I am free to be me.

Keep your traditions and your rules
I am nobody’s silly fool
I’ll not live this life, your way
It’s not valid, for today.

I’ll dance my own steps
When fate knocks, I’ll say ‘Yes’
I’ll steer, my own course
This is my life, not yours.

If I err, I’ll admit it
I’m not afraid, to just quit it
My mistakes, are my own
Decisions made, full grown.

I need to know, I tried
Had my fill of life, before I die
Can’t live, apologising
Just working hard, never thriving.

I need challenges and excitement

Not just duty, until retirement
Then body failing, always raining
Never see anyone, mouth complaining.

81: Calm Before The Storm

Waiting, waiting
Time for change
Face it, face it
Don’t delay
Dig deep, dig deep
Lead the way.

Move on, move on
The time is now.
Stay calm, stay calm
Let nothing show.
Walk tall, walk tall
And let it go.

Breathe, just breathe
And go with the flow.

It’s just a room
In a public building
This is no prison
Unless in your mind.
The people are all scared
Don’t take on their cares
Relax your body
Let your mind unwind.

The past is flown
The future is unknown
What more is there to say?
Love your life
Live your love
Enjoy being here today.

Yes, you can enjoy
What once was raw
Open your heart
And step through that door.
