Second Thoughts

On second thought,

I won’t,

On second thought,

I can’t,

On second thought,

It’s impossible,

On second thought,

Hey, it may be possible.

Now haven’t you heard,

Those words enough,

They don’t make you strong,

They don’t make you tough,

When you try so hard,

But you’ve had enough,

That does not mean,

It’s time to give up.

Even when life seems like,

It’s rolling away,

Like it’s just out of grasp,

Way too far away,

Just keep trudging on,

Through the sweat,

And the dirt,

Through the tears in your eyes,

And the years you may despise.

Cuz if you just say,

On second thought,

I can’t,

How will you know,

What you missed?

It could have,

Changed your life,

If you had made it through,

It could have given you something,

Unbelievable to do,

Indescribable to do,

Giving up,

Won’t ever change you.

Life is a challenge,

Let’s face the facts,

But even it,

Is a possible task,

So go out in the world,

Get out from,

Behind the mask,

Make a difference,

Make a change,

And never give up.

And when you look back,

At all the things,

That you’ve done,

The game of life,

That you’ve won,

You’ll be happy to say,

“I never gave up,”

You stayed optimistic,

From then until now,

If someone may ask you,

How to give up,

You will not know how.
