There were a few reasons why
She finally made up her mind
After waiting at the ragged edge
For as long as she had
She felt that it was high time
To live life without regrets
She had been holding back
Biting her tongue
Staying in the shadows
Putting off until tomorrow
Which never seemed to come
There was a stack of unread books
Envelopes still unaddressed
Stories in her head waiting to be written
There was a long list
Of places
She would love to get
Things she wanted to do
So bad she could taste it
On the tip of her tongue
And it seemed as if
She might never get the chance
Unless she begin to do what she said
Put her words into truth
Get her own self ready
Take a few more chances
Dance just because
The music is playing
Find the treasures
In the unlikely places
Follow through
On all the things
She claimed to believe
Receive as much as she’s given
Stop making up excuses
There’s a million reasons why
She should live life
Until she dies
