Today, immersed in the dreary drudgery,
of the never ending toil,
stuck in a gridlock,
on the highway,
i pulled up just past the sidewalk,
to reflect…
to take stock
of my life,
and the road i must now trot.

i saw my past unfold,
saw the things i did that i shouldn’t have done,
things i didn’t do that i should have done,
and i mused,
this is the past, i must learn its lessons,
and depart from it,
for it holds not,
the allure of the future.

i saw the present,
a joyful time, full of desires, dreams, expectations, hope, romance
all beckoning…
awaiting their turn to be unlocked,
only by me..
for i hold the key to their destiny
and i said to myself..
alas! my future can only be great!

i saw my future,
what a wondrous spectacle,
of dreams long fulfilled,
mighty empires already built,
i saw a union of hearts,
a merging of two souls,
which from ages past was destined to be,
and thus,
with energy so charged,
drove off to seek this future,
to lay its foundation,
for i must live this dream,
and only with you.
