Procrastination Is Not My Destination...

A Poem

By Steven BaldryPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Procrastination is not my destination...

Procrastination was my destination...

I was my own worst enemy.

Waiting forever for the right time...

When I had it already in front of me.

I was a contradiction with my belief of fiction...

But I was unable to see.

For I had never found a sound that rang true...

That rang true Inside of me.

And then without warning I heard the calling.

Like the sun rising on a dark winter morning.

My spirit was lifted like never before.

In this Epiphany I realised I could achieve so much more.

I had wasted opportunity and failed to seize my days

When for so long ‘Carpe Diem’ was all that led my way.

I had my head in the clouds always stubborn and proud.

With my open mind becoming narrowed and bound.

I now feel kind of strange but I know it’s time for a change.

As my faith and understanding grows deeper and strong...

I know this is the beginning of something special...

And time waits for no man so it is time to move on.

As I walk on with a smile, I have no sorrow.

For I am wise in knowledge...

To learn from yesterday, to live for today.

But to hope for tomorrow.
