Blank Page
Location
So I sat there,
Staring at what looks to be the most blankest page I've ever seen
The awkward moment when you have nothing to write about - know what I mean?
When your mind goes blank and your brain just farted
When the imagination of a lifetime all departed
The moments when your brain fails you the most are the moments when you need it
Because when your brain can see it, your heart can believe it
But when your mind goes blank, the page does too
And it won't change until you know what to do, cause only YOU can make a difference
Out of yourself and the world
Cause I'm trying to compare life to a piece of paper
What you have written on it is what you have in your path
It could be a short-term goal with a single paragraph
Or a long-term goal with a page and a half
But it doesn't matter because it's just a piece of paper
Let's make a book and take a look at what we could do to cook a mean story
And when I mean 'mean' in that line, I don't mean the emotional 'mean'
I meant the adjective that describes something could be - 'mean'
'Cause you could only wish you were as great as a page filled with structured details
If you're not working your way into your book, you're not working your way
Into your dreams
Everyone has a story that needs to be said
And when Shakespeare said "Life's a stage",
It means you have a role that needs to be read
And you know that you can't read it if you don't have one
So make one while you're still young, you don't need to wait until it's too late
Because waiting lasts forever and so does life, if you made it that way
Be late any other day, just not today, because I believe the only way
To get what you needed to say out of the way is to start today
Don't. Procrastinate.
Take out that pen, paper, pencil or eraser and write something on your blank page
Don't hurry! But don't take your time either
Because the faster you plan, a better chance for a future
Don't wait for someone to do it for you because that's called cheating
Don't take one from someone else because that's called stealing
Don't plagiarize, just realize that the blueprint is much more valuable than the copy
So do you see what I mean? Be legit, not counterfeit
Because if you're waiting for someone else to write YOUR script, for YOUR stage,
Then you'll be left with
One. Blank. Page.
