The Beginning

Wandering, leave my world behind,
A journey, new beginnings.
Unsure of what I’ll find,

Thoughts and images flash my mind
On this journey I’m embarking.
Wandering, leave my world behind.

These thoughts I have aren’t always kind.
Tangled, jumbled, darting, seeking,
Unsure of what I’ll find.

Pausing briefly to unwind,
The prospect of reflecting.
Wandering, leave my world behind.

Emotions strapped and, in a bind,
My steps slow down, I’m faltering.
Unsure of what I’ll find.

So, I embark, eyes remain blind.
This challenge I’m accepting.
Wandering, leave my world behind,
Unsure of what I’ll find.
