Possibilities

They stretch out ahead of us,
  they remain dormant until awakened.
An idea, a dream, a plan,
  new steps to take if we dare.
The thing is can we see them,
  can we see there is a possibility.
Something new inviting us,
  sometimes we cling to the safe shore
Of what is known and
   comfortable. Never realizing we are
Holding onto a wreck,
  a piece of wood instead of the ships deck.
Let go, swim to the shore
  and explore the new world you've washed up in.
