What wakes you up from the bed
The alarm or your soul?

Do you lend a shoulder
Or so selfishly get through the day?

Did you put a smile on someone’s face
Or did your words slay a heart?

Did you blame someone for your fault
Or held yourself accountable?

Did you follow the heard to blend in
Or stood alone by your actions?

Did you step on someone for better
Or walked beside and showed the way?

Did you sweat for your passion
Or whine through the day?

Did you sleep to repeat?
Or worked to earn your tomorrow?

    I love this. All of it. But the final two-liner really has it! I sincerely hope I earn my tomorrows. I try to, but you can never be sure... Thanks Verity.

    Thanks, Neville and Christopher! I know you'll would be puking on the creepy calls just added some fillers.
