PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I’ve seen the path

Sprawled before me,

The one I was destined

To embark on.

It wasn’t as straight-shot

As I once expected,

But one that was

Winding so much so

That I couldn’t see

Beyond the curves.

  

I abandoned that vision

And instead I

Found myself reveling

In the tangents,

Deviating off course

And absorbing myself

In the roadside scenery

Long enough

To lose sight of my trail

And never look back.
