Possibility

The world so cold and harsh
laughs mockingly as it watches
We scurry about so intent
on finding something worth meaning
often settling for second best
Finding out too late that
what we were seeking
is still a possibility
We've become trapped
in a falsely gilded cage
We'll spend eternity
yearning for what could have been
Not knowing that it still could be
You just have to find the courage
to make the journey
To taste and see
if it's right for you
Take the first step, leave the safety
of the life you created
Answer your soul's beckoning
or spend forever wondering
what could have been
