3 Prong Fork

Contributed by dvtpdw on Wednesday, 15th August 2012 @ 08:58:04 AM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



Direct in front of me lies a three prong fork
I stand with feet planted, hands outstretched
Each path pulls me with overwhelming torque
But on which road is my true future etched

The right road lights the way to finding my past
Family waits at the end with all my last deeds
I can choose this one; find peace at long last
But the ditches each side have dangerous reeds

The left road leads the way to just him and me
It's lined with roses that carry the scent of love
We could finally find what originally was to be
But if I follow this, who will give our life a shove

The center road beckons me with its sweet song
I see the flickering shadows as it calls my name
I wonder, ponder, I think it can't be wrong
But can we fit; I feel the draw of its flame

Life sends mixed messages, hard to see
So many times finding myself right here
I'll pray I make the right choice to be
Near the life I crave, listen for my cheer
