Dorcas Tayire Poet Rhyme

The Crossroad

I stood 
At the crossroad,
Uncertain of the life before me 
And the one behind me.
Do I do away with the life I once lived? 
And walk towards the life I dream I'll be?
Or do I stand; staring back and forth, 
Clinging more unto the things 
I refuse to let go of? 
While yearning for the things 
I wish I'd someday be.

What would it be?
The choice has been placed in my hands.
I hope my hands hold tight 
Unto the choice that's void of wrongs.
