The Road
/Recently I have been through a personal journey, faced with unexpected challenges. This is the inspiration for this poem.
————
I see the road, I see the twists and turns
This road is empty, a dirt road seldom used
The pot holes are deep, they are hard to spot
The edges are rough, cliffs on both sides
I let myself feel the fear, feel the anxiety
I let it go now, I replace it with strength
I will leave nothing behind, the whole of me will tackle this road
I will meet this journey head on, I will not back down
Just like in life, the unexpected will happen
I will take it in my stride, I will find the way around
I will reach the end, stronger then when I started.
