On the Eve

No going back,

always going forward.

Belong to the known,

longing for better.

It’s about identity,

it’s about hope.

Loyal to the familiar,

untied from the past.

Freedom to decide,

and to get it wrong.

Better together,

but for who?

Independence,

Interdependence.

Yes we can,

no we won’t.

There’s nothing in it,

but everything.

X marks the spot,

make the future

start.
