The first page between your hands <br />And you are afraid to decide, <br />Turn it over unfinished, <br />Or stay on, hold a pencil and write? <br />The story of standing still <br />Like an old gray straw, <br />The story of your dull life <br />With no tinge of happiness or hue <br />Of sweet madness. <br />The book of your lifetime, <br />After all these years, appears blank <br />And at page one you are still standing, <br />Wondering, <br />How to start with a stunning sentence <br />And beat the others. <br />But the sentence never comes <br />And you stand still, <br />Without turning the page over <br />Nor fill it <br />With the boring story of yours.<br /><br />inas essa<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/page-one-2/
