And that's the thing about the future. It's unknown, unknowable, but before you know it, you're there.


Out of the darkness comes a thin haze of light
have you finally found me?
Strengthening, I approach cautious, but feel no fear.
And all the anger melts away.
No longer unknowing, and ultimately seeing
that it is you, your hand offered with hope.

I beg you-

Ponder my quest,
it is bold,
it is great.
In the world that I live in
am I alone,
or are you out there?

My future is waiting,
should I be cautious,
or without fear?
All this making me angry.
The unknowing,
the unseeing.

Tell me my purpose,
my destiny’s ending.
My life-a story.
I’m threatening to collapse
under the stress of waiting
under the wait of watching.
Tell me.

There's more to everything we think we know, there's more to everything we think we wish, and there's more to everyone we think we know.
