In the middle of crossroads you stand
Been wandering in circles, do you still run?
Left or right, you remain confused
Which way to go, you need to choose.
Your heart’s desire, just a step away
But do you go for it, or do you stay?
Swayed by uncertainty, but it’s what you want
You want to grab it now, but you just can’t.
Arms stretched, you try to reach
You try to move forward inch by inch
Is it for you, you stop and doubt
Do you pursue north or do you head back south?
Looking behind, do you go back?
Do you close your eyes and try your luck?
Listening intently, seeking for the Voice
Please help me, you say, I need to make a choice.
Standing unmoved, you look at the road
Trying to discern answers yet untold
Wind is blowing, your name they call
But grounded you stay, determined not to fall.
The end of the road, you still don’t see
Helpless inside, what’s your destiny
As you stand there, you patiently wait
The road may be unknown… but take it to your faith.
:) how are you feeling now??
ReplyDeleteWe all have faith but we don't all use it to its full potential. We have faith that our feet will hold us up or we would not take a step. However, it is when we get in unfamiliar territory that we question our ability to sustain.
ReplyDeleteSome people have this tendency of holding back and resist change or keeping themselves wrapped in their comfort zones. The uncertainties of what's ahead scare them. But really, is it worth not taking the risk? After all, life is all about it.
ReplyDeleteMore poems! I mean I usually end up finding poems on many blogs as I continue to read others. I like the poem. You're a good writer. Hope you had a good weekend and that your day be greater.
ReplyDeleteHey sweetie.This is great. This really reaches out to me. I find myself at a crossroad where there are just too many decisions I have to take. Life is about risks and making choices....

hey friend! its been too long! i really enjoyed reading this. I feel like i'm constantly at a crossroads these days. but sometimes you have to just close your eyes and let your heart guide your steps.
thanks guys. been a while since i last wrote a poem. ;)
ReplyDeletetrue, it's hard to face a lot of choices. worse, to not know the right thing to do. but the good news is, if you patiently wait and seek with all your heart, you will get -the answer- :)
I can totally relate to your poem because I hate having to make a choice. I want it all. I guess there's no straight paths to the life we want, only sinuous roads that can lead us there...
