For some time now I have wandered this same dark and weary path trodding through the brambley forest that is my life. Yet, in the distance I see this split in the path one side looks as if it may lead to brighter horizons the other seems to continue farther into the darkness that I've been traveling. Do I take the path towards possibly brighter futures or continue on and wait for some other distant road?
(enters the brighter clearing)
Perhaps, this is my time! Live my life, be brave, take chances, be happy, spend time with those who are dearest to my heart instead of feeling sorry or mad... I've been moody and cold for too long and have alienated and pushed away some while others have shown they just may be true enough to weather the storm of my life... I am no longer going to live in the past but look to my present and just let the future happen as it will.

A Dream Within A Dream...
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow-
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand-
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep- while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?
By: Edgar Allan Poe
