Sweeping up the shattered shards of old, unfulfilled dreams,
He smiled,
Knowing that what he’d been searching for
Had stood right in front of him all along –
He’d just needed the courage
To reach out and grasp it,
To release his grip on the past,
Open up his hands,
And let it shatter upon the floor.
