The Act

-Prologue

The Beginning

Before you read this
Before you venture
Make sure you have a dream
And make sure you can reach that
And when you know what that is
Read on

-Scene 1

Mistakes

The swallows echo there unmatched voice around the caves of your anxious mind
And the picture you painted on the canvas of your life starts to melt from the heat of your feelings
Once the paint starts to dry again the image is left distorted with burns and scratches
And your left with a masterpiece

-Scene 2

Aftermath

A new canvas is pulled from the eclipse of what you used to be
And brushes created from thin air where your smile used to resound
It glistens white just like the fresh clouds above the Alps
And your left with a new beginning

-Scene 3

Baby Steps

As the images of tranquillity and white noise courses through your veins
And your eyes light up with ideas beyond the perfect heaven
You must only leave small marks on this glistening canvas
And your left with a goal

-Scene 4

Take it

You know what you need to do, What you need to reach for
And the only hope of ever reaching is to stretch the boundaries on which you were born to know
Hold your heart above your head and feel all that is going on around you
And your left with an understanding

-Scene 5

Treasure

Once the tip of the paintbrush reaches that perfect canvas of your new life
Following the outlines just as you planned, with perfect precision
And the colours change as the sun changes angle through your curtains
And your left with your new life

-Scene 6

The End

Now that you have this perfect picture painted from your dreams
From the Alps down to the swallows, smiles will stretch for you
As we know you have painted a perfect picture of what you want
And your left with happiness

-Epilogue

Understanding

I hope this gives you an idea
Of who you wish to be
It is possible
Just make sure when the time is right
Start again, and make everything count
