Windswept dunes
Broken dreams
Dark skies with umber linings
Standing at a crossroad
With roads that lead nowhere
Caught up with no glad tidings
Signs pointing now to somewhere
But maybe that’s not true
No steps are left to follow
To thy self be true
Stillness of an aching loss
Confusion pays the cost
Imagine there will be tomorrow
That hope is born anew
Take a step into the future
See what it holds for you

I love love love having new faces and words in my contests. WELCOME. Your pen is marvelous, these lines speak straight through all the resistant BS, and straight to the heart of what I was seeking.
Thank you for entering this piece, it's gorgeous.
Best wishes, and much love always,
Jin
