Cardiac Navigation

According to some
I’ve never had much form
Always been considered a middle runner
But you know what they say
When your stand out in the pack
You’re really noticed

It took me a long while to realise
What I’m good at doing
The years slipped by
While I pottered around trying to figure it out
A friend said it was too late
To start a new career at something
I had never done before

So how young or old do you have to be
To pursue by dreams of creativity
Fortunately I am hard of hearing
Stubborn and hard of head
And I didn’t really take in what my friend said
I kind of feel sorry for him
To have given up so much
To become so cynical so young

I’ve always been led by my heart
And so far it hasn’t steered me wrong
