Stepping Into the Unknown

Banking on heads but coming 
up tails,
Life is a train on the tracks and 
death is one off the rails;
Turning right when you should 
have gone left,
Letting your guard down and 
succumbing to theft;
Theft of your ideas, faith, and 
love,
Hoping and praying for 
guidance from above;
Your conscience weighing down 
upon the thoughts you bear,
Leaving you susceptible to life's 
gruesome wear and tear;
The pathway ahead now not so 
clear,
Fog disrupting your view of 
what once seemed so near;
Uncertainty now surely claims 
your every thought,
Not knowing whether or not to 
pursue what you once sought;
What's white is black and 
what's black is white;
What's right is wrong and 
what's wrong is right;
These cards you've been dealt 
are not what they seem,
Neither winning nor losing, it's 
more than a dream;
Life is a roller coaster with no 
fail proof restraints,
So live every day like your last 
and hold no complaints;
Nothing is ever set in stone or 
kept secure with a lock,
And unpredictability is just one 
of life's numerous building 
blocks.
