Journeys

We walk life’s journey with unfounded expectations
What will our path hold?

I travel this journey alone
In search of what?
My true self or confirmation.
Dealing with the perils I have experienced
Yet not experienced.
Trials yet to come, I must face.
For I walk alone.

The sands of question are heavy under my feet.
As I look down, there are only one set of prints.
Impressions of the past.

Looking ahead I can only see the waves of time.
Have washed upon the shore.
Impartial and unyeilding to the lessons it leaves.
Yet not knowing where to step
I tread slowly.

I feel the weight under my feet
The sands of time
Heavy is the burden I carry.
Leaving deep impressions that are mine.
And Mine alone.

Fearful of the next wave and what it will bring.
Shells of wisdom, or ripples of uncertainty?
I will not be afraid.

Tides of emotions settle upon the beach
Feelings left behind
What will I learn from the tide?
What impressions do I leave behind?

Deep impression, only to fade
Washed away from the never ending tides of emotions.
Are they remembered?

With the wash of the next tide
Will pain be swept away?
To bring forth new ripples of hope in the sand
I must walk on.

Shimmering thoughts of moonbeams
Caress the smooth waters
Left by the never ending tides
Calming reflections of tomorrow

I leave this beach of dispair
Wonderment of what is in store.
Whre will my path lead me now
Weary from anticipation.

This journey I take, unsure of what’s to come.
Has brought me to a new path
What will this path hold for me?
Confidence or uncertainty

The path I chose to take now
What will it hold?
What mysteries of knowledge and experience
The walk is slow and careful
For now unsure of what is to unfold.

As I walk towards a new path
I feel the pains of the past
Yet I am assured of my existence
For my soul will guide me.

Sun sets on today, yet I know
The sun will rise again
A wonderful self awareness awaits me
As I know my self.

The sands of time behind me
What have I learned?
Passions and understanding
Ill feelings I have purged.

A new path, a new beginning.
What it holds in store.
Only time will tell
I walk this journey alone.

I discover the meaning of who I am
The perils set before me.
I will endure and survive.
For I am me.
