The Future Is A Raging Storm

The future is a raging storm A distant sky filled with rain and lightning Making decisions can leave one forlorn and repercussions could be frightening. We spend our time planning and preparing But when the day arrives, we are paralyzed. Realizing we lack the daring, we follow the current and shut our eyes. Ambitious schemes and dreams are hidden away For fear of being disappointed. The mantra becomes, "One day" but it never comes, our lives already decided. The unknown terrifies all With unanswerable questions of "Will I survive or will I stumble and fall? Will I be enough?" The time for action is approaching fast Quicker than our thoughts can form the present blurs into the past the future is a raging storm.
