ONE-WAY, SECOND CHANCE RIDE

My life is a one-way, second chance ride.
My destiny is what He makes me decide
Wit’ the freewill to choose wrong or right,
And be of the dark world or wit’ the Light.

I turn regrets into lessons I should learn.
The past is gone; I cannot make a U-turn
And go back to reclaim all my lost years,
When I became the reason o’ much tears.

My ride’s slow & bumpy; the road narrow;
I know not what awaits for me tomorrow;
Wind of adversity blows against my face,
That shan’t deter me to keep up my pace.
Milestones of memories I leave behind.
Of the bitter past I choose not to rewind;
For w’at was done then, can’t be undone.
W’at matters is now & it too will be gone!

Of the sharp bends of ugly circumstance,
T’at put my progress into a state o’ trance,
I know I can count on His Help and Grace,
And He alone shall let me finish this race!
