Why are you waiting to begin your life
Do you think the world must care and come soliciting?
Listen to the knocking at the door of your own heart
It is faint because you have not answered
You have fooled yourself with preparations
Time left laughing while you considered possibilities
Wake up you have slept long enough
Wake up tomorrow may be too late
When you finally dare open the door
Your life will begin arriving
Cautiously at first unbelieving that the gate
So long locked against the tide has finally been opened
Then with swells of neglected dreams
Then with waves of joyful revelation the sea will follow
You will be swept by the full and magnificent tides of
your own longing
That no one else can give you
That no one else can claim.
