The Clock Is Ticking
by Joan SerratelliNow that I am older,
I have come to the realization
that I need to live
My way
We ALL have regrets.
we've all sinned
Are we all going'to hell?
You cannot buy your way
into Heaven
Judgement Day may be tomorrow,
for all I know
NObody lives forever
I would not want to
But when all is said
and done
where do I go?
I've had my moments
happiness is not my strong suit
Yet I have experienced joy.
sorrow, and have had my share
of pain
I"ve paid
for my sins,
everyone does
Nobody gets a free ride
You play;
You pay
No truer words
were ever said
My parents gave me life
the rest was up to me
My screw ups were
mine;
I blame nobody else
I made my choices
right or wrong;
I take responsibilty
for my decisions
I will answer for them
and when do
I hope I am not
judged harshly
