It's almost midnight but still I cannot sleep,
There's so many things on my mind,
There's a lot to do and a lot to keep,
And a lot of memories that I should leave behind.
Days do go by so very fast,
I feel I can't keep up with it,
Wondering how long I can last,
Or should I give up and leave.
The future is unknown and I should wait,
The present should be of my concern,
Maybe I should all leave it with fate,
Before I crash and burn.
Youth will be gone in a little time,
But wisdom will be the prize,
I hope doubt is not a crime,
Because if it is I will never rise.
Maybe I fear too much of things I should not,
But I cannot help but do,
For I know that doors will always shut,
If action will be overdue,
Life as everything is not forever,
But I hope I could leave a mark,
like a calm but strong river,
Like a ray of light in the dark.
But for now all I can do is pray,
That things will be all that good,
And hope to have to smile with each passing day,
And be and do what I should.
