Daily Poetry Challenge 4: GOODBYE PAST, HELLO FUTURE (Original Poem)
*Hello Friends,*

## There are many things to hold unto
One of them isn't your past
Though you may not want to
*But you have to let it go fast*

## Press that button of delete
Forget the images that trouble you
Rise up from your previous defeats
*Go to God to cuddle you*

## Look ahead, there is light at the end
Its not over until you win the race
Life will not be straight, it may bend
*But those that will finish it must keep the pace*

## Today is the key to your future
Are you living now or down?
Gather your pieces together and suture
*Eventually, everything you have been through will count!*

>>>The inspiration for this poem was from *my last day as a youth corp member in Nigeria*. I got my certificate. Its giving me an opportunity to think things through and face a new future. One phase of my life is done and dusted. ***Wooo$!!!*** I'm going to use this entry for the Poetry Contest Wk 1 by @mahdiyari

"Its not over until you win the race
Life will not be straight, it may bend
But those that will finish it must keep the pace" Exactly...  Because it has been a partial world we live in.  For those who want to win the race will just have to sit tight,  keep head straight and put all efforts.  Nice post bro

Thanks man @ssonia. The world is a mysterious place but we have to hustle to live by some laid down principles...if you work hard, it must eventually pay off.
