SONG OF CHOICE AND THE IMPOSSIBLE - Poem

8/23/2020

0 Comments

 
​In this life there are no borders
everything is possible.


In the face of adversity
the greatest strength manifested.


In the darkest night
the brightest star shines.


Impossible is not too big a word,
except in minds too small for it to fit.


The universe born and made by choice,
so those who relinquish their power
feel the weight upon their shoulders,


for life is nudging them to face
their fearing resistance
and asking them to change.


Toward realisation
is life directed,


and sometimes
through the darkness it must go


for us to be able
to see the light.


And if we show up
and answer our call,


what await us are blessing
and a prime chance to grow.


In this life nothing is impossible,
in this life nothing is certain
except the fact of death.


Thus, to choose to play,
to dance with that uncertainty!


To laugh at the odds and say:
you have no power over me!


The gift that life gives us:
It's entirely up to me, up to you!


Bestowed us the capacity to create
anything we imagine under the sun.


Not to use that precious gift; a tragedy!
​
To step down and say:
I can't, that's not how the world works,
has killed more dreams than words can prove,
and in truth it is simply a belief,
in the end but an excuse.


To show up and rise up to the challenge
is all we can do.


To take that chance
and that leap of faith
into the abyss of the unknown
trusting that we will be supported.


In this life everything is possible
and it's up for us to choose.
