Second Chance

by Chelsea King   Jun 10, 2008


You are in a tunnel going round and round trying to figure
out what to do
You can not see a thing and you are scared that it might be the
end
Then you hear something coming from within, telling you
to look for a light
So you search for days and days and still no light
could be found
Then you start thinking to yourself What if the light
was here all along?
You close your eyes and concentrate on the light, then
you open them and you see it
The light you had been looking for, for days
You start walking toward it but it gets further away
You call out to it asking Is this the right way?
It just keeps going further the other way and pretty
soon the light had gone away
You think to yourself What have I done, I have
ruined my only chance to get out
So for the next few days you just sit and wait,
hoping for the light to come back
Then you realize that it is not coming back and that
you had missed your one and only chance
So you start praying to God asking him to bless
all the people on Earth
Bless them with knowing that there is no second
chance in life so choose wisely and love everybody
Because you never know when you will have a second
chance in life or when you just have to take it and go
So never take life for granted because you never
know how long you are gonna be here and how many
second chances you will get!
