The Power of Change

Change

We face it everyday

Everywhere;

Next to us,

Next to me.

It seems relentless,

Unforgiving at times,

But we have the power

To change all that.

 

WE control change,

Like cause and effect,

The SNOWBALL rolls down

And becomes an AVALANCHE,

But we can CHANGE all that.

 

We DON’T have to SIT around

Stare at a wall

With vacant expressions.

We DON’T have to WAIT

For the next train

To arrive at our doorstep.

We DON’T have TIME

To do all that

And achieve our DREAMS.

 

Now let’s CHANGE that

Together.

 

Get OFF that couch

VENTURE into the world.

STOP waiting for everything

And go CHASE after your DREAMS.

BE YOURSELF and BE KIND,

For every POSITIVE change

On YOUR life

Has a positive EFFECT onto others.

 

You should have SEEN

What I have been through.

The emotions of PAIN,

SORROW

LOSS

The darkness turned into LIGHT

I came THROUGH.

There is MORE to life 

Than what we thought.

 

So go out there.

Go change yourself.

BELIEVE that you can.

 

For every drop of RAIN

There’s a CHANCE

To make a whole OCEAN,

An ocean of OPPORTUNITY.

 

Change yourself,

Change the world.
