Even if no one were to know
What the future will have in store,
There is still the possibility
To do so much more,
So open the door
As a way to see
With a newfound sense of clarity,
And strive to be
Both alive and well
As the magic of living
Casts an enchanting spell,
And seek golden opportunities
To create and appreciate
A compelling narrative
While trying to stay as pure as gold
So that a story that must be told
Would have a reflective perspective
