Daily Decisions To New Beginnings

As the seconds of your life turn from months to years And the restless whispers of your unfulfilled dreams awake you There remains a distant glimpse of your former true self The self that was inspired by dew drops in the early morning The longing looks of circumventing lust transforming to love The passionate embraces thrusting to complete satisfaction and the forgotten imagination that awaits its resurrection A daily decision whether to remain condemned to this reality or create the clear escape to the soul's freedom Yet the decision is convoluted by fears and inhibitions Thoughts of failure and rejection perpetuated by the masses And so I will fall asleep tonight with a new thought troubling me But what I do tomorrow will either be my rebirth or a continued cycle
