ooo the critical moment is not far off
how exciting...
you have your whole future in front of you
all you have to do is decide
will it be toast, bagel,
honey nut cheerios, or eggs
if toast it be with peanut butter or butter
should we add honey?!
if a bagel should it be cream cheese or not
should it be toasted?!
the future can be a daunting thing if you let it
but it can also be breakfast and it can be sweetened
the critical moment is not far off
you will soon graduate from school
seventh grade alone is no picnic
will you cave to social pressure
will you cave to your parents own insecurities
will you complete your work
will you pay attention in class
will you read extra
will you kiss, embrace
the future can be as scary as and dark as a cave
but it can also be a sunrise on the horizon
the critical moment is not far off
will you prepare today for the unknown future
will you consider how you want to respond to conflict
would you prefer to choose violence over nonviolence
can you choose between self and others
can you forgive others, yourself?
the future holds unknown things none should have to face
but it can be bearable if prepared for
the critical moment is not far off
choices bring us into the future
change is what the future brings
will your choice now bring the future you want
will your choice now be the future we need
will your choice simple as it may seem be right
the future
