Future
Image created onCanva
It’s right ahead of me,
the path I tread. My boots
dirty from where I’ve been
and where I may travel next
Cracks in the road are certain,
but no matter what I keep
my head held high
The winding road
is sometimes unending –
At a crossroads when
decisions are tough
Stop and look up at the
stars in the sky
they shine through
the darkness and
are a reminder to
keep going, for even
in the darkest nights
there is a light that cannot
be put out.
