Crossroads

Do you ever think about your life?

Do you wonder of the joys and the strife?

How do you weigh the good and the bad...

How do you know which you have?

It seems my mind is like a forest thick and scary

It seems my mind is growing weary...

As I walk through the trees it soon gets dark

And now I can not tell apart

The direction I'm going and which way I should

In over my head, how I wish I could

Just lift the blanket that clouds my mind

I wish I could see into time.

Glance at my future, and all the ways

My life could go if I stay,

Or should I leave and start anew?

Oh how I just wish I knew....

It seemed so easy at the start,

And now I can not tell apart

Which road is promising and which a dead end

I can not see what's around the bend

At a fork in the road without a guide

I can't just run off and hide

I cant stand idle and think

I have to act; jump off the brink

What do I do? Which way do I go?

Why does time move so slow?

But then again, it happens so fast,

I won't have a chance to grasp

The reality of it, can I face it?

Will I be able to take it?

Scared yet numb, I sit and wonder

Will I succeed? Or will I suffer?

This fork in the road approaching soon,

Will I survive or meet my doom?

I'll start walking and take my course

Maybe I'll walk with remorse...

Or maybe I will walk with light

And be able to shine so bright

I guess I shall just have to see,

What it is that awaits for me...
