Unwritten Destiny

Dwelling in the unknown....
Just out of grasp....
Lurking behind the corner....
Hiding amongst the stars....

Pounding within my very soul
Is a feeling so great.
But everytime I reach out for it,
It slips away into the shadows.

Peering through the hazy glare
Searching for that lost hope,
That feeling that sent a rush throughout me
Eluded my grasp....

Pondering through a library of thoughts
Looking in every little space.
Not giving up until it's found....

Time is running out,
And it's nearly too late,
When it finally appears.

My eyes widen with joy,
And I take the book of life's mystery.
Holding it in my shaking hands,
I rejoice at my discovery.

Opening it, I suddenly frown.
Flipping through its pages,
I notice that they are blank,
and I start to wonder.

After deep thought and consideration,
I realize....
That this is my unwritten destiny and hope,
And pray for a bestseller.

    This is really good. At first i was kinda drifting in and out but at the end i was extreamly intrested. I like the last stanza expeshally the last line.

    This is good. Descriptive enough to give vivid images, and metaphorical as well. Nicely done.
