Future?

Future?
Such an interesting concept
Ideas and plans
Already laid out in front of you
But a future…
It's more than just an idea
It's every possibility
Every chance
For something altering to occur
A future is neither bad
Nor good
A future is neutral
Caring not of its effects
Such a future comes
From a biased past
One filled with truth
With lies, with alibis
Crossed with emotions
And actions
This past turns into now
A now riddled with uncertainty
And decisions
Full of memories
And hopes, dreams
Once now turns into then
That's when things turn grey
Who knows
Which path you will choose?
Which wine you will taste?
Whose heart will break?
The one thing about futures
Is that you have to live now
To ever reach them
In an instant, your future
Can disappear
Your now becomes past
And nothing follows
This future
Is only reached
By living through today
Through the memories
Of futures passed
And the choices made tomorrow
The future is far away
A concept hard to grasp
But we'll grasp the future yet
And live it to the last

He Walks Amongst Us

He walks amongst us, but he is not one of us. That's what the words say, But not what they mean. Is this a stranger in town, Someone so isolated that even his friends do not recognise him.

Dust

Do I have a life, have a soul, Or am I nothing more than flesh on bone. I live, I think, I breath, I know, But in years to come I'll be food for crows. Is life worth a life of living.

Time

The time is moving somewhere south. But people runing to the north. Some people try to understand. But that's impossible for them. They try to catch the wasted years. Reveal the secrets of the life.

Get On With It

Life is a strange thing. You're only here for a while and then you're gone again. All your questions ignored and unanswered. The point of existence, still a mystery.

Risk And Reward

When the result is the same, However you play. Where is the game. What price will you pay. Success is forbidden, Lose, lose is my choice. I'll stand in my corner, And not use my voice.
