The Blank Page

Searching for the right way out of the dark
All I ask is a glitter of hope, a spark
The past keeps flashing within my mind
The path to the light I am seeking to find.

If i could just have those wasted days back
To pave a way that puts me back on track
I'd take it now, take it anytime
Even if it cost me million a dime.

So very fast have the days passed by
Its getting harder and harder to live this lie
To live it or give in I can't decide
With this guilt and pain residing inside

Its time i left the past aside
This golden rule i have to abide
Look ahead, not turn back and sigh
This decision i make, i have to stand by.

To spend every minute with utmost care
With the years ahead i have to spare
No remorse, no refrain
The life I'm left with, I shall retain.

I have decided now, come what may,
This is exactly how i shall lead the way
Yesterday's forgotten, tomorrow's ahead
It is today that i have to mend.

Gift or curse, wrong or right,
The time has come for me to fight
To shape my life back upright
This blank page of mine, i tear tonight.

- This was my first take at poetry and it was at the Christ Fest.....CHRIST!!!! DID IT SUCK!!!!!
