Looking Forward


An open road before me

My path marked on a map

Lines smearing with uncertainty

With possibility and anticipation

 

Many pitfalls lie before me

Hazards yet unseen

Still I must push on

To whatever waits ahead

 

I am guided on this journey

And yet left alone

On my shoulders rests my fate

Mine to make of what I will
