Resolute

Time is a ticking and I can’t wait
If I do then I not might get to take
My hand off the wheel and look around
Doing that will put me in the ground
And that is not where I want to be
Too much left for me to see
I don’t roam like a fool
I mean this world is beyond cool
Just look at all that we have done
Pinnacles of pure creation
Each one an invention of the mind
We just have to keep our hearts kind
That is why I don’t see the point
In crushing myself beneath this joint
Until I feel like I’m in a cage
That would just be an end to the page
With no attempt to turn over
Keep it going a little longer
It’s why we’re here, at least for me
So I’ll do this and not fade away
