I'm in Charge of My Life

No matter what life throws at you,
No matter who hurt your heart.
Life is worth the effort
If you'll only give a good start

Pain has been in my life for sure
Ones I thought should have loved me
Delivered the worst of sorrow and scars
But my strengths have set me free

He can not hurt me anymore
It has nothing to do with age
I've put it all in it's proper place
Now my life is my own stage

Smiles form inside and out
And yes, sadness is there too
But now I know just where I stand
And it isn't because of just you

I have taken charge of things
My head is not in the past
Determinations and faith are my rocks
And no past will interfer at last.

It sure is great when we become the captains of our own fate.

I'm sorrry, I don't know how I missed this comment. I've not been here for a very long time. Thank you for your sweet comments.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
