In Black or Gold

The future,

written, or not;

in black ink

or in gold,

it hardly matters.

With eyes,

even weary ones,

we keep on reading,

ever in search

of the next adventure

with each page we turn.

Until, at the end,

the unexpected appears…

The realization…

always in our hands,

the present,

the only time

worth living, and,

whenever possible,

reliving.
