Carpe Diem
Seize the day, That’s what they say;
But how do I even start;
I spend my day, wasting away;
I don’t even use my heart;
How can I seize what I can’t see,
I don’t know where to begin;
How can I be the best of Me,
Without fighting the battle within!
I will sure try, to figure out why,
I can’t seem to jump start my life;
By being so shy, it’s me I deny;
I’ll never be somebody’s wife!
But I have learned that when you yearn,
For something for long enough;
You have to spurn all your concern,
You just have to be tough!
And show the world that you’re a girl,
That isn’t going to give in;
Just give it a whirl, let it unfurl,
Then you will surely win!
