Fleeting Chances

Take the risk or lose the chance
The world ahead awaits your stance
The future now is yours to grasp
Don't hesitate, don't let it clasp

The path to greatness may be steep,
The climb ahead may make you weep
But know that every step you take
Will lead you closer to your fate

The road may be uncertain, true
Your heart may tremble in your chest
But have the courage to pursue
The dreams within that rarely rest

For life is but a fleeting stage
A chance to leave an endless mark
Embrace the risks, break from your cage
And soar above the dull and dark

The fear of failure grips us tight
The worries linger in our mind
But know that when you take the flight
The doubts you had will be left behind

The odds may not be in your favour
The hurdles high, the path unclear
But with a fearless heart, you'll savour
The victories you hold so dear

Take the risk or miss the chance
Your dreams will never come to pass
Your life will lose its soulful dance
The world will bury you en masse

Believe in yourself, lift your head
And dare to take that giant leap
The journey may be filled with dread
But the reward you have to keep

The lessons learned along the way
The strength you'll gain with every fall
Will light your path and guide your stay
And help you climb the towering wall

So take the risk and don't look back
The future's knocking on your door
Embrace the journey, love the track
And greatness you will soon adore

The world is waiting for your light
The gifts you bring, the dreams you hold
Take the risk and with all your might
Create the story yet untold

Life's short, my friend, don't waste a breath
The time is now, the moment's here
Take the risk or face the death
Of all you hoped and held so near

The journey's long, the road is rough
The destination's out of sight
But take the risk, show your own stuff
And climb the mountain with your might

Take the risk or lose the chance
The choice is yours, the fate in hand
Embrace the thrill, join the dance
And journey on to the promised land.
