Art and Motorcycles

There are many reasons I could list for why I choose to smile. One day at a time. I try to keep my eyes on a bigger picture; try not getting caught up on the details. I wake up and I decide where this day will lead, what things I will accomplish.

I am on the brink of something extraordinary, I can feel it. It will make me happy. The anticipation tingles in my stomach and I can’t wait much longer. I grow restless. I get upset and feel trapped here, looking out the window, waiting for my life to begin. But it’s one step at a time. One moment to the next. I can’t wait. I cannot wait.

So for now, I choose this. My eyes are keen to the door opening, but they’re no longer stuck staring. I choose art and motorcycles, laughing until I burst, learning until I drop, loving until I die. It’s alright, for now. It’s alright, I’ll be alright, we’ll be alright.
