The moments that actually change your life do not with drumrolls arrive
For a long time, I did not realize this truth, I was naive
And believed that the highlights of my life that everyone could see
Would be the ones that marked life changes for me
*
The moments that completely altered my life’s course
Are indelibly imprinted on my mind, but the incredible force
That they exerted on my life is known to no one but me
They started out as a small voice in my head, an epiphany
When I acted on that voice, I had a sixth sense
That I was headed for a change in my life intense
*
When those events occurred, people around me were oblivious
To the profound changes in my life but to me it was obvious
That a binary event had occurred, one that would divide
My life into a before and an after, into two different sides
It was confusing, it was disorienting, it was exciting as well
But it was a solitary experience, there was no one to tell
*
I still marvel at those seemingly insignificant moments that became
So monumental that things did not stay the same
Perhaps I should compile them and write about them one day
It would be illuminating to identify the factors that paved my way
Passion...unbridled
