Stop Waiting
Stop waiting for the perfect day,
For storms to pass or clouds to fade.
The sun will rise, the moon will wane,
Yet time moves on through joy and pain.
The clock won’t pause for doubt or fear,
Its rhythm whispers, loud and clear.
Each tick, a chance, a fleeting spark—
A call to step into the dark.
Dreams don’t bloom on someday’s soil,
Nor grow through endless fear or toil.
They wait for action, bold and true—
For courage born in hearts like you.
Stop waiting for the stars to align,
For fate to draw a flawless sign.
Leap now, for time won’t halt its stride—
Your destiny waits just outside.
So grasp the hour, fierce and strong,
The melody of life’s short song.
For while you linger, time flies through—
Stop waiting, for it won’t wait for you.
