Jo Bien Poet Verse

The Trail Not Blazed

I've stumbled through the darkness,
the ground quaking beneath
caught in Purgatory
where the past and the future meet.

as the flame would flicker
I could see the things you missed
like a candle lighting slowly
after it flickers and hisses

courage to move forward
you finally make your move
splintered bridges all around
connecting me to you

the dawn breaks on distortion
vignettes of fallen dreams
trudging into morning
another day it seems

I'll meet you where the road forks
and let you choose your way
I will take the other path
the one we have not blazed
