crossroads

Standing at a crossroad,
confused about where to go
what to do next...

Wondering at a crossroad,
wish i could just go back
where i used to be...

Lingering at a crossroad,
going one way and then coming back
wont i ever make up my mind?

crying at the crossroad.
missing what i have left behind...
too scared to go forward,
scared of what ill find...

Please tell me what you think

    Excellent write.

    Everything about this poem is good. It's flow, rhyme, and even its length is just right. It really could fit into the crossroads that we all face, at many different times in life. I'm 43, and am at a crossroad again, I can relate. I also loved the title, it fits the write perfectly.

    This is very good, I remembered how I felt months on end after I left school.

    The lack of puctuation within the lines and using it at the end of lines is a bit frustrating, I recommend using the apostrophe at least.

    I wrote a poem similar to this when I graduated high school. The future can be overwhelming sometimes but it does get better. There will be tears and times when you want to run back to what you use to know, but you can't. Keep your head up and be brave. You'll be fine.

    Nice write, repetition really aided it.

    I think we all get to the crossroads in life many many times. Never sure which way to go or stay in the old comfort zone knowing that what lay there. Then to take the step and moveout into unknown and adventure. You have captured this feeling just right. Well crafted. thank you for the pleasure of this read

    I know how this feels, not knowing whether you should go one way or another. You did a really good job of writting this. Good job and thanks for the read =]

    very good

    thank you for sharing this with us ,very good work(line four..Wondering at a croosroad ..a little typo easily fixed oops )a sad little write but we all reach crossroads in our lives and have to choose which road to travel,we always try to make the right decision but sometimes when mistakes are made (which we all make)then we find that we can backtrack just enough to say sorry and at other times we just have to plod along on a stoney path untill we find an easy path to walk again.
