Schicksal

I belong to a future that is

not meant to be.

I can taste the sweet destiny of a

life I cannot live.

Life consists of so many paths, but

you can only travel down one road at

a time.

There are no do-overs, no going

back to where we left off or going back

to how things were before.

We can only trust that our hearts, our souls,

have the right sense to guide us down

the road which we call fate.

(Because out heads cannot.)



And when we reach that fork in the

road - this decision always lays so

heavy on one's heart.

It doesn't matter what path you take,

the rest of your life you will spend your time,

questionsing, asking, wandering.

What if I would of taken the high grounds?

What if I would of taken the low ground?

Would I be where I am now?

Would I be better off? Would i be worst off?

But the truth is there is no right way,

there is no wrong way.

There is only your way.

But if you do not make these decisions for yourself

can you really define yourself as an individual?



If the life you live is not your

own, if the ideas that churn inside your mind

do not belong to you

then why even continue down this road?

Wouldn't you be free-er jumping off the side of a bridge?
