Tonight
As the night carries on, I sit here and listen to words written by artists I've never met. I'm the only one awake right now, surrounded by my thoughts. My head spins with the ideas I want to bring to life, with the dreams I abandoned, with all the things I thought I should be but never truly wanted. My emotions run free; I'm hit with paroxysms of wonder laced with bouts of anxiety. It's just hit me. The rest of my life starts right now. I'm just not quite sure that I'm ready for it. It's the dead of the night. But I've never felt so alive.
