Before Midnight Poem by Richard Lam

There's still time
It isn't too late
Board the train
Settle in another town
Make mistakes
It's alright
Get up
Dust off yourself
Look at you
In the mirror
Think long and hard
Decide the person you want to be

There's still time
It isn't too late
Trace the steps all the way
Back and back to that forked road
Tiptoe at the edge of precipice
Hold your breadth
Drown out the noise
Find your peace
Find meaning in what you do
Learn something new

There's still time
Don't let events groom you into a downer
Or disbelievers smother your faith
Instead
Let the stars guide your way
Let nature clear your eyes
Cast away your doubts
Your fears
Fly high your kite of truest dreams
It's time to set sail that adventurer's boat
Do it now
Do it for yourself

For when midnight does come
And it surely will
It will be too late
It will be too late
