Vita

Something phenomenal calls!

Its voice is like a gushing waterfall.

Endless continuums of percussions resound

The rhythm infiltrates my consciousness and my veins.

It becomes synchronized with my heart and brain.

I writhed like a woman in childbirth.

Struggling, I sought to cast out this rhythm and the source of this call.

I wanted to sit. I wanted to crawl.

I wanted to smash this thing against the wall.

Enduring until the sound dissipates.

Drenched and exhasuted, I wait.

 

Eternity is ike an endless mile.

Mortality is a second in a day.

A new dawn beckons.

As the rhytm crescendos,

I surrend to its beat.

 

I am a newborn on the stage of life.

Is this my scene to make as I wish?

I am a fish out of water drowning from air.

Yet an Oscar awaits the moment I participate.

 

The choices I make reflect on the past.

Who have I cast, but myself?

Constantly, I am prepared to tangle with each day.

Reaching out for help, I am pulled from the fray.

 

Like a rose that forgot to bloom,

I am struck with the onset of gloom.

Counting the years, I have left, can I make the deadline?

Fate screams, "Get in line!"

It is my turn to shine.

I have resolved that I just need to be me,

Be courageous, be open, be free.

Allow life's paths to converge.

 

The blinding light of life has turned green.

I am revved and ready,

To make my grandest scene!
