Here and Now

Here and Now

A Poem by Daniel Affsprung
"

A poem/set of lyrics i wrote a while back

"
Here and Now i see my way, through the endless sands of time,
Here and Now i see my path, towards a point too far to find.
Am I scared to see my future? Just enough to keep my stride.
And as i walk into the danger, i find my fear's too hard to hide.

As my steps ring through the silence, i think of all i left behind.
All the choices that I made, second guessed within my mind.
The fork appears on my horizon, moving forth in perfect tide,
When i reach it, my steps halt, i put down my head and cry.

To turn back, I'd be a coward, with nothing to show for this time gone.
The road ends in sight before me, suddenly i start to run.
At the end of my life's path, there my final battle's won.
Take the leap, no hesitation, soldier on into the Sun.

I often look back on the choice i made and the ones i didnt make, often about all the girls i never told i liked :P haha, but i also look toward the future, heading to university and beyond, and it does look scary. I can relate quite well to this poem and i must say it is pretty awesome :) keep up the good stuff :D
