GO FORTH AND DO THIS DEED
SEIZE THE MOMENT WITH COURAGE IN YOUR HEART
In the quiet hours of dusk, when shadows whispered soft and
low, A task was handed down to me, a challenge I had yet to
know. Go forth they said, and do this deed, it’s yours
alone to see it through. Yet there I stood, in silent thought,
with time’s constraints and fear’s taboo.
I could’ve seized the moment then, with courage in my heart,
I would’ve woven wonders, I would’ve crafted art. If only I
should’ve braved the storm, and dared to leap,
Instead, I watched the minutes fade, as dreams and doubts
did steep.
I could’ve scaled the heights unknown and touched the stars
above, I would’ve danced with destiny, I would’ve cherished
love. If only I should’ve faced my fears, and let my spirit soar,
Perhaps I’d find the strength within, to open every door.
I could’ve harnessed fire’s light and shaped it in my hands, I
would’ve spun a tale of hope, on life’s vast shifting sands. If
only I should’ve walked that road and left regret behind, I’d
find the peace in knowing, that life is undefined.
Now here I sit in quiet thought, with lessons carved in time, I
could’ve chased the fleeting dream, I would’ve made it mine.
If only I should’ve held the pen, and written my story clearly,
Instead, I linger in the past, where if onlys reappear.
But life is not a tale of woe, nor chains that bind my soul, For
in each moment, here and now, I still can play my role. I
could’ve, would’ve, should’ve learned, that time is always
new, And every task, and every dream, begins with what I do.
So let me rise, with strength reborn, and cast aside my fear, I
will embrace the tasks at hand, with purpose strong and
clear. For in the echoes of the past, the future’s seeds are
sown, And in the journey, here and now, true growth is
always shown.
