What life shall I behold?
What shall my world be?
A long play where I wear a mask and hide my scars?
A short tale that keeps me wondering through the quiet night?
A sonnet that I recite freely?
A melody that moves me till dawn?
No, something more.
A dream I’ve been longing to explore.
Shall I go and visit The Globe,
Where Shakespeare crafted Romeo and Juliet’s love?
Or shall I go to Athens,
And read the classics
Where old myths of gods forever unfold?
My mind is in doubt,
But my heart whispers words of art.
I look at the sky,
I stare at the light.
I see it all, and suddenly I know;
The heart speaks true:
“I tell you, muse,
I found my place!”
