Whats Your Yonder

"Another day to wonder,
What’s in my yonder

You know that place down the road,
When I get there I’ll know

Hoping that the answers got their first, 
For all the questions I’ve nursed

Almost everyday,
Just trying to find my way

Wondering where am I going,
Or am I roaming

I’m hoping my yonder will show me
The purpose which drives me

Or doesn’t,
Or isn’t

Is it my resistance,
Or a lack of patience

Flittering instead of focused,
Not recognizing the goal before us

Am I ignoring the present,
For a future to resent

Maybe today I should prioritize,
That what I visualize

As important and true,
So in the now, I knew

Confident with my choices,
Not needing other voices

On a path, now clear,
My yonder, disappeared"
