The Finish line

Shasha jean 2010 (Florida)



I can never get it right,
no matter how hard I try
always feeling like time has,
no rhyme or reason why.

Always feeling so lonely,
With sprinkling thoughts of maybes
This vivid dream of mine,
Might never make it to the finish line.

Nothing’s ever set in stone,
My mind could still be blown
I could still be given a chance to make it right,
A chance to shine.

All I need is more time,
I could still make it to the finish line.
