Finish line by Abby Kesington
Stop! Look at the skyline
And enjoy the sunshine
The clouds threatens to confine
And the rain forms a coastline
Yet the sun shines bright.
Stop! Look at the skyline
When life storms like a feline
Tearing down your baseline
leaving you without an anchor
Remember the sun still shines.
Stop! Look at the skyline
When friends go offline
And no help from the bloodline
Remember the sun still shines
Stop! Look at the skyline
When worry makes you lose your hairline
For fear of not meeting a deadline
Remember the sun still shines
Stop! Look at the skyline
When left at the battle line
With no clue or guidelines
Remember the sun still shines
Stop! Look up the skyline
And pray to see the fine lines
That it was all by design to bring you to the finish line.
