An honest look up

Man, someone remind me, what I did! Who I was and still wasn’t. Who I became is not the same, And change is change, but this is just derange. What did I do? I say… Where was the fork in the road? How have I’ve lost in the sand and the snow? Maybe the better question, though - what will I do? God, someone forgive me, what I’ve done! What I’ve none to know it was. What I’ve become I can’t explain, And change is still change, but I’m just deranged! What have I done? I may… Recall that fork in the woods? How I’d might find myself tripped on the roots When the meadow was just there… Now that’s despair. Well, I didn’t care. But watching the other ones frolicking won’t get me anywhere. Maybe the better question… so - what will I do? Same question, aye? But there’s no such thing as same. A good, honest look up… We’ll look there. I see my destination.
