A Place To Begin

Dusting off the day
Enter my head - what shall it say?
After all that's happened since the last

Recalling all that has passed

I suppose I've once again spun

Around our blazing, boiling sun

Making fading memories

Nodding softly in the breeze 

Oh, they've only just begun

To dance they're twisting, spiraling dance

Winding down each choice and chance

Hold on tight - we've time left still

And a lifetime of blank space to fill

Take my hand and run with me -

Yesterday's gone and I've things to see

Over the mountains and through the sky

Until I've nowhere left to fly

Hunting every possibility 

All I must do first is quit

Doubting myself and shrugging a forfeit

Try as many times as I must

Hands aren't meant for collecting dust

Of all the things I could be and have been

Up to this point, and after my twentieth spin -

Gathering new things to try for a while

Holding onto the ones that make me smile -

Til the end, there's no end - just a place to begin
