Rather Than

In this journey of venture, I know unknown is part of the realm. In the moments of silence. I’ll listen to the nature sound, guiding me forward...

In a world full of choices to make,

We weigh our options,

 wondering what’s at stake there.

Do we follow the crowd? 

Or carve our own way forward?

Let’s choose the road,

less traveled before,

follow our gut with-

value as our guide pole...

Rather than fade into the gray,

we’ll blend the colors, 

fit our own theme;

Rather than doubt what I can do.

I’ll keep trying, 

set myself free.

When the voices around me try to-

push me down,

I’ll stand my ground, 

wear a frown.

With every step I take,

I’ll find my strength,

take my own rhyme.. 

In this journey of venture, 

I know,

unknown is part of the realm.

In the moments of silence, 

I’ll listen to the inner voice.

Guiding me forward, 

it’s just the start,

rather than end of the trying

So here’s to the choices,

that light up the night,

Rather than fear,

 I’ll ride the change tide...
