The Point Of No Return


It doesn't just happen, our passing that point of no return

It's a choice that we must all make when it comes our turn

Then we live with the consequences of the line we decided to cross

With no promise of a positive outcome, for there may be loss

All we can really count on is at that time things will change

Then discovering we have to live within the results range

And right there is where we all find the hardest part

Because we're defined by our past right from the start

A million times about our choices each of us often rethinks

But what we decide, we own, even when it stinks

For that then becomes a part of who we truly are

We may be crossing a raging river to follow our star

But our footprints are there as they should be

Remaining on the other side for all to see
