Possibilities

My heart freezes in mid-beat
My breath condenses and catches in my throat
And, for a moment, the world simply, suddenly stops
As one phase of my life ends, dies, fades away
I know that nothing will ever be the same, again...
Half a second later, when my heart resumes it's clumsy beat
My breaths melts, and I exhale something like relief
Something new has begun, it's a totally different world, now
And, for once, I'm glad that everything has changed
'Cause things have just been so cookie cutter cruel, lately
One tragedy after another, filled with demanding scenes
Like life's play had gone mad, a tale told by a fool
Full of false hopes, false starts, and false realities
And yet, somehow,it was written with Shakespearen grace...
But that's all gone now, that's all in the past
There's stars to be wished on, plans to be made
I've got luck on my side, now, and optimism in my heart
And I realize that there is nothing that I can't do
There is no dream too big, no hope too high
There are only brillant and beautiful possibilities...
