The Road Ahead
Whether it's the road just ahead or distance far,
Never forget where you are headed and who you are.
There was one who turned his head,
And later caused his head to dread.
There was pain that cut into his heart,
And could have torn his whole world apart.
Conscious awareness of possible tragedies
can drip the soul with fears of consequences.
The head that had turned was forced to return,
And the heart set aflame had learned to discern.
