Intersection of Time
i stand haphazardly
at the crossroads of life
on one side
they are gathered
hands extended outwardly
ready to welcome me
on the other side
you reach out
tempting me
with the same passion
as this very dawn
i linger on the edge
weighing my choices
carefully trying to decide
which road to follow
love is not an option
when it's scattered
across the distance
like this sun
across endless skies
trying to be the light
in everyone's path
i stand frozen
stuck in the frame
of marching time
awaiting...
as the seconds
continue
to wind down
