Say it, mean it!

Seconds, minutes, hours
Days, weeks and then to months
Tell me how much have you accomplished
More like how much have you sunk yourself in falsehood
There is nothing other than excuses you’ve given
Nothing other than deceiving your own being
That shall follow with regrets and grieve
It’s tight, it’s raging, it’s a rush
But you chose to dwell in temporary lies
Where was the passion, where was the force
Where was the determination that was once there
It is a vow, it is a pledge, it is a promise to yourself
On firm ground you need to anchor yourself on
On faithfulness and disciplinary you need to hold yourself to
Detach yourself from duplicity
Fix your eyes on worthwhile goals
Regrets and grieve are not to stay
Victory and glory are on their way
It is a decision you need to realize
It’s time for goodbye to worthless enjoyment
That’ll lead you to unending pain and sorrow
Come on back on the path of diligence
He is ever present to your need
He is there to help...

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2

On that brink of courage

-- You probably didn't know
it was anticipatory when i thought of it
yet again even the last tad bit of hope was torn
guess the gap is there to stay?
can't figure out what's left before my eyes
all is unpromising and unpredictable
how much i wish to just play cool
to be the one to put on the cold mask and walk off
convincing myself i can do it own my own --
