Embracing The Future Poems

Poems About Accepting What The Future Holds

Looking to the future can be scary, but it can also be exciting. We are constantly presented with new opportunities. Let’s step out and take hold of those opportunities, even when we don't know how things will turn out. 

Change is constant, and life is a journey. We don’t know what the future holds. Although there are bound to be tough things ahead, there are also going to be incredible moments that we could never have imagined. 

Take a leap of faith. Set out to do something you’ve always wanted to do. 

Look to the future with hope. There are amazing possibilities ahead. Don’t allow fear to hold you back, for a life filled with regrets of not chasing your dreams is a life filled with sorrow and bitterness. It's time to let go of the past and embrace what the future holds. 

8 Poems About Accepting What The Future Holds

  1. Finding Hope

    Reviewing my life and feeling that I've wasted most of it in fear of actually living it.

    in Hope Poems

    I've always viewed life from the side lines,
    Just watching it passing me by.
    In the past, too afraid to just let go and live,
    And lately too tired to try.

  2. Live In The Now

    This is a lesson I learned about not living in the past nor being kept in bondage to regrets about yesterday's mistakes.

    in Inspirational Poems

    Look not back on yesterday
    or what you have left behind.
    For only today is yours to claim,
    and this moment only is your time.

  4. All Because Of You

    • By Dana
    • Published by Family Friend Poems April 2015 with permission of the Author.

    I moved out of my parents' house when I was 17. I've lost people in my life, done things that I shouldn't have, had people treat me like I was nothing. But even though I've had all of these troubles, I've still come out a caring, giving, and loving person. I wrote this poem with my parents in mind. But now that it's written, I've found that it's not just about them, it's about everyone who has ever been in my life. Anyone who has influenced me and anyone I will meet in the future who will influence me.

    in Change Poems

    My life is changing.
    The life that I've had,
    It's changing forever,
    But no need to be sad.

  5. Circle Of Life

    • By Carly Nasch
    • Published by Family Friend Poems March 2009 with permission of the Author.

    I am a student, a learner, a righteous person. I am a poet. I am someone who will sit down on my free time with my own free will and write a poem. When I write, I feel like my whole body is in balance. I am not a person who when disagrees on something will stand up and speak my mind right then and there. What I would do is go home, take out a sheet of paper, and write what I am thinking. Poetry is my refuge, my sacred thing, something no one can take away from me. I am a poet and proud to be one.

    in Inspirational Poems

    Life is a carousel, always going forward, never going back.
    Existence is a hard thing to keep when you stop trying.
    To live a life, you must want to live.
    To want to live you must find a way.

    I always see the brighter side of my life. Never could a failure affect me and my positive thoughts. The journey of life begins with a single step.

  9. The Ride

    • By Sean Parekh
    • Published by Family Friend Poems August 2012 with permission of the Author.

    My poem is simply about life and how it is a journey for all of us. How we shouldn't worry about where we are going but just enjoy the ride. How we should go after what we believe in.

    in Inspirational Poems

    I don't know where this ride is taking me.
    I don't know when to let go.
    All I know is I'm in it for the journey
    To give me more and more.

    I will walk slowly through this day;
    I leave what is not needed behind from yesterday.
