Deception


Darkness fills the sky Looking for a path that looks right But my eyes and mind are fooled as the night passes by My eyes closed tight Stumbling into every tree and soon falling into a ditch I feel small Smaller than an ant in a high school hall My mind is emptier than a tree that looses all it's leaves during the fall As the sun peeks through the night My eyes struggle to open for sight I clilmb and climb with all of my might From the ditch of lost hope The light grazes my face In such a fast pace I'm lifted I reach a division in my path The choice is not as easy as first grade math But my eyes and mind are no longer decieved Narrow and long is the course I take the journey, I dont look back I have no remorse
