Endless Paths

My head is twisted and confused, there are paths to ignore and paths to choose. I sit within and contemplate, for I cannot go back on my chosen fate. Some I must run and others I crawl, a few I must pause, before I trip and fall. I cannot close my eyes in fear, only with my heart can I hear. I move to the left and look to the right, my mind is a maze with no end in sight. I can't be too hasty and I can't be too slow, each step is a choice, my rhythm and flow. I shan't forget my biggest hurdle, each path has its own confusing riddle. Whichever I choose to lead or ignore, affects myself and those in my core. There is only one beginning, so I can't go astray, but the end is limitless and so I must pray. I pray for guidance and for faith, I pray I keep my strength and wait. I pray I choose the right path for me, and hope its best for all to see. I pray for choices I've already made, I pray for decisions I've yet to say. I pray to the heavens that the life I live, is a blazing path of love to give.
