I choose to live

Feeling this
feeling
not running
away

still in this
moment
breathing
today

one life
too large
one moment
to live

fears to now
face
meaning to
give

past is now
gone
present to
choose

patterns of
mind
nothing to
lose

break from the
cycle
move
just one step

grateful for 
choices
free from
regret

open before me
to hell with 
the circles

I have my
own future
no reliance on
miracles

the comfort says
don't
you'll fail
you can't

the echoes 
my mantra
past life's
chant

dear friends
see
push
love
relate

feels like all
sit
watch
wonder
and wait

so here in this
moment
I choose
yet again

to fight
to love
to step
to win
