Turning the Page

Turning the Page

I reach the final word 

Of course - 

- A cliffhanger.

how the journey will go, what the future of this tale will bring

no one knows. 

we’re told just one thing:

now is the time to turn the page, time to start a new chapter

it will be different from the rest, this chapter

the font, the style

all will be a breath of fresh air because - 

this is the chapter we will write for ourselves

the chapter where we become the author, live as the protagonist

on these pages, we will choose the genre, the pace, the rhythm

it may be a little offbeat, inconsistent, out of order at first

but not for long

as we write on, live on

We find our perfect tempo. 

Now,

now is when we turn the page to where

the world begins

Now is when we create our new beginning, unearth our happy ending

Pen in hand

We write this story - our story.
