Crossroads

Why is it that when we face a crossroad?

our mind comes to a standstill, and

the obscurity of the situation, further

makes taking a call seem like a task uphill!

It's true that some roads lead us to

success, happiness, peace n' bliss, but

it's also true that some roads lead us to

failure, defeat n' sadness strewn amiss!

One cannot remain standing forever

not wanting to surge ahead, out of fear

some road will have to be chosen n’ undertaken

so what if the journey at the onset appears murkier!

Like an enthralled sojourner, choose the road

where your heart n' mind guide you to, and

if you feel enroute that this isn't the one,

just take a U back for the next road n' continue!

In the realm of unknown, lie the answers

to all that you want to seek n' know

you have to learn to obey n’ listen to nature

as it teaches on the way, but first you've to go!

Tune in your mind n' raise up your eyes

to overcome the plight that's anguishing you

every crossroad has some learning for you to imbue

replenished with the beauty that surrounds you!
