A Crossroads of Infinite Paths

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

I see the path To where I desire to be I watch the people Move so much farther than me Success is near They travel so far I watch from my porch Aware of the end But unable to see Where to start "A flame can only burn/ As long as there is a wick/ But the longer it lingers/ The more it’s own wax will/ Smother it." ~ "Worrying about other's opinions/ Is like writing a book/ With someone else's name on it/ When you stop living for yourself and start living for others/ Your life/ Isn’t yours" ~

The past is behind us

But its knife

Still is lodged in my back


The present is a gift

To be alive and well I agree

But as the world grows darker

My next step I can hardly see


The future could be fate

Or a destination based on choices


So, "how do I go on?" becomes the question

One to wrestle, writhe, worry on


Because everyone

Knows where they want to be

or at least partially


But we are all pacing, racing, waiting

wondering how to get there
