Two Feet In

Clinching my fists together, I realize an emotion is driven, How to get through, The pain that has been given, The paths are bright, Only seeing so far into each, The rest is out of sight, My choice on which will teach, Teach me like a young child, Growing into an adult, My ways are mild, The hand says stop; halt, Is that where you want, To direct the heart, Deep thoughts haunt, The streets start to part. It’s a decision for now, In the future we’ll see, In with two feet; plow, Plow the other lane-no longer to be. I chose right, Wrongs may come across, Darkness comes every night, But I stand up like a boss. I’m the boss of my journey, Which way to head next, Points given; attorney, With two feet I’ll use respects. Choose which way will benefit-but always know there’s darkness in every path, so stand with TWO feet.
