Life Lets Itself Unfold Like A Cardboard Castle
Life is an opportunity
To spread wings
We don’t have,
Find caves
We don’t explore,
Dream dreams
We may never fulfill,
But through it all,
We persevere.
Our life is a series
Of missed opportunities
That presented themselves
Wholly in front of us,
And along the way,
We forgot,
Or chose,
Not to take them.
But what’s stopping
Us from taking
The next one?
Or the next one?
How about this one?
It’s the opportunities
That we
Do
Take,
Not the ones
We don’t
That shape us
In ways the world
Sees us for.
But is that really
Truth?
Sometimes the things
We don’t
Do
Make us
More human
Than
Ever,
And show us the
Greatness
Of our
Very
Being.
Your choices
Aren’t
To ever
Exactly
Coincide
With mine,
And that’s the beauty
Of the
Natural
Human.
Your inaction
Could be
My greatest
Choice
Of taking
Action.
Life lets itself
Unfold
Like a cardboard
Castle,
And we are the wolves
To enter
It with
No maliciousness
Or
Leave it,
Burning
Behind
Us.
What will it be?
