Epsilon's Embrace : Living Unscripted

In endless cycles their minds race,
Churning thoughts without pause or grace.
Round and round the hamster wheel,
Spinning notions they never feel.

Caught in loops of rumination,  
Avoiding risk or confrontation.  
Safe inside their heads they stay,
As life just passes them away.

Too scared to leap, to try, to grow,
They watch each day tick by so slow.
Awash in doubt and full of fear,  
Each moment lived but never here.

Inside a maze of could've, would've, should've,  
Paths not taken, chances unproved.
Regrets pile high, mistakes replay,
As time slips by night and day.

What if they spoke? What if they dared?
If only they weren't so scared.
Of failure, judgment, ridicule,
So best to play it safe and cool.  

But safety comes at such a cost,
As life outside begins to frost.
Hardening slowly day by day,
Till years have washed clean away.

Grey trudges on the same old beat,
While dreams lie crushed under their feet.  
No risks were taken, nothing gained,
Only loneliness remained.  

The fearful mind is enemy true,
It robs us of what we could do.
But change comes not from thought alone,
We must step forth from safety's zone.

With open arms embrace the fray,  
Be bold, be brave, begin today.
Take action now, no more delay,
Let courage light your destined way.

Leap before thought seals up your fate,
Be playful, burn restrictive traits.  
Step out from comfort's smothering haze,
And live your life in wondrous ways.

Stop analyzing, judging within,
Break cycles that cage you in.
No more waiting, hesitation,
Now is the time for creation!

Flow free, release what lies below,  
Trust in life's currents as they go.
You are the artist, life's the art,
Create each moment from your heart.  

Act on your dreams, don't just opine,
Bring into being your sacred design.
Make this world uniquely your own,
Let resplendent colors be shown.

No more waiting for some far-off day,
The time for courage is now, I say!
What wondrous living will you create?
Don't ponder long, my friend, or wait.

Your life is a luminous canvas unveiled,
With potentialities waiting to be detailed.
Seize your brushes, let inspiration flow,
Jubilantly paint outside lines you know.

What masterpiece will your living compose?
Dare your full spirit explode and disclose!
No more musing in safety's confinement,  
Arise now in bold experientment!

Let each moment be a courageous daub,
Texture your days with color so robust.
Lean not on thoughts of how paint should fall,
But throw yourself into the creative all.

Make mistakes, let forms take wild shape,
Trust in process, your art will take shape.
Unique is the life that unfolds this way,
As fear falls aside and intuition holds sway.

Do not wait for muse to make her call,
No! You must grab life by its overalls!
Plunge your hands in its moist epsilon,
Mold radiant forms from its yielding clay.

Do not linger long considering the cost,
For time not seized is already lost.
Cast worry aside, let your spirit run free,  
To live authentically, audaciously.

Each moment a blank page laid before you,
What daring art will your living imbue?
Write, paint, sculpt! Let your creativity reign,  
This moment's palette yours to reclaim.

Do not cage your ideas before they're born,
Let them burst free, wildly adorn  
Each day with richness and nuance anew,
Your living canvas is there to ensue.  

What whimsy will you permit yourself to share?
What awe-some innovations will you dare?
This life is yours, you hold the pen, paintbrush,
What engrossing art through you will gush?

My friend, be bold, take the leap, begin!
Stop overthinking, start daring, dive in!
I'll be right here should you need a guide,
But venture forth, your moment's ripe tide!
