Each step I take,
may seem to be unknown.
But the final destination,
is a path paved with stone.
Winds of reflection,
my constant companion.
Blowing soft and gentle,
or with beguiling abandon.
Each intersection offers,
multiple opportunities.
New roads to explore,
more possibilities.
Closer each day,
to this journey's end.
Further from the place,
from where life does begin.
No matter our decisions,
whether wrong or right.
The final pathway leads,
towards eternity's light.
