What kind of potion will you concoct?

We only have one shot at life,
That’s what they tell me,
Do it now or you will never do it,
Decide now or you will be deciding for decades.
But is it all that much,
we never realize the value of something until its gone
before its gone, we keep on chasing stuff we don’t have,
we never will,
we remember that friend we lost due to bad deeds done by us,
we regret it now,
but then we didn’t understand.
The cauldron is always empty at the beginning,
it starts to fill as you live life,
it totally depends on you what kind of potion you concoct.
Take that leap you are afraid to take,
take part in that contest you are scared to take part in,
after all,
if you fail you will learn,
if you win you will remember,
and in the end you may have a potion you are proud of.
