The Way

Will it come or will it not?

The day when the joy becomes grief  be comes  small?

Great when the day that I have been driven forward into a unknown land.

The path grows steeper,
The air colder and sharper.
A wind from my goals stirs the strings with expectations.

Still the question;
Shall I ever get there?

There where my life is a clear pure note.

Will If I never measure the height of a mountain, until
I have reached the top.

Then I will never see how low it was.

So he who keeps his eyes fixed on the far way will find his right road.
