In the Now

In the Now

A Poem by Anonymous Aspects

Now. In this moment.
Or never at all
Are you to scared to fall?
To fail, to try, to succeed?
Constantly questioning what you want and what you need

Met at crossroads, intersecting deceptions
For everyone, life is a different conception
What is your drive?
Whether it be money or power or fame
In the end, isn’t life just a game?

Push and push till you can’t take it any more
A meaningless heap lie awry on a dusted floor
Time is ticking, so watch the clock 
How much longer till the nagging stops?
Silence. Peace. Rest.  And Remember.
The spark within a burning ember

Sometimes your light dies out
One in a million, it’s hard to stand out
You get lost in this world of success and progression
Sometimes it feels like your creativity is met with repression

But you can’t go astray in this sea of undermining depth
You were made with purpose 
Life should not be characterized by regret

A resilient ray of light in the sky
A passionate heart can let your dreams fly
You can overcome life’s pressing battles
Repress doubts and suspend shadows
Your limits succeed the horizon line
A new sunrise

Pursue your dreams
Hope for the better
Bring forth your dusty trophy sitting on the back of your counter
It’s time to start, in the now
To pursue your goals
As your potential allows
