Can I hold this course?

Or will I falter,

blown by the wind …

wherever it may go,

a lonely soul …

with nowhere to turn,

how will I break free …

from these chains,

that bind me …

to this life,

can I hide my true feelings?

Or will I divulge,

for the slight chance …

of a better life,

ignoring the harsh reality …

that I could lose all,

but not everything …

plagued by what ifs,

and false illusions …

of how life could be ,

if only this great life …

was meant to be.
