 Grasp the Moment

Grasp the Moment

The dawning of another day
what will it bring to me?
to make it as I really want
to choose how it should be

To hide my head beneath the sheets
hoping it all goes away
churning things over in my mind
of things never going my way

Or do I rise and face the day
hopefull of all it could bring
anything I want it to be
to this thought, I should try to cling

Only I can make this so
the choice is mine alone
keep looking back at failures past
or to a future yet unkown

I'm familiar with the usual rut
it's comfortable to me
yes it's full of hurt and pain
I'm imprisoned, never free

Perhaps it's time to change things
get out of this habit I'm in
just a different frame of mind
such good things it could bring

Surely I am worth it
to have a second chance
to live the life that I want so
accept a brand new stance

To see the chink in the body of pain
that's used to ruling me
I think it's time to change things now
to allow me to be free

So I will grasp the moment
to make this day my chance
to grasp the things I want the most
to live, to love, to dance.
