During These Last Days

As time moves in one direction it’s not so hard for anyone to see
there’s a truth that follows and continues
to hint of what’s to come to be.
It’s foolish to continue to value things that mean so little if brought about,
with a past that’s already been written
and a future that is running out.
Some things unresolved need to be fixed without any more delays,
to make restitutions; to be forgiven and to forgive
during these last days.

You may believe you were never a great person
certainly not from the standards of these times,
not really accomplished to be notable,
just another soul passing through this life.
You always kind of knew what side of the fence you were destined to be on
as you monitored both sides, yearning for a share
of the prizes before they were gone.
It’s obvious, to follow the game plan you’ll need to calculate all the right plays;
to ready yourself to be in good position for the next move
during these last days.

Years ago, you thought about you being here in this day and age;
and how you would need to break free of your self-abuse ways;
so as to fit into an undertaking with your amended spirit and heart
that for this purpose, you might be ready to enact your allotted part.

You’ve moved on past the all about me; looking to them that you hold dear
that need to get it, that need to know
the end of hours is drawing near.
You know you’re not alone; others are making ready to tally their final score,
so, stay focused on the endgame,
and don’t let the wrong call you out anymore.
While some look for signs to be sure, this isn’t just some new trend or phase
you want to be prepared, to shine your light in all directions,
during these last days.
