Bucket List – Prologue

We change… believe you me or not, it’s true!
It is the thing that we all humans tend to do
when finishing another chapter of our lives,
when only what is worthy in our soul survives.

I’ve noticed I have changed myself, of late
for I have turned against my hallow, messy fate.
Prioritising caught a new and broader meaning
and now my life seems less and less demeaning.

Do my pursuits in life remain the same, I wonder,
my purpose reached a greater state, or humbler?
I’ll never know until I change again, I fear…
and up until that point it all remains unclear.

Up until now, my bucket list remained unwritten,
but, as I steer away from tracks already beaten,
I find the will to finally sit down and try
to fill a list of things I want… to do before I die.
