Crossroads






Searching for a haven
in a world of chaos
I found only tears
shed for the pain
of a million souls
tormented
by the confusion
the prisoners
of a million others
who dictate their lives
or deaths
there is no easy path
only the mountains
high and dangerous
where wind
can take you away
looking to the sky
once clear and blue
now gray and forbidding
I know the time is soon
we stand at the crossroads
one path is life
one is death
and one decision
may take us all
to or destinies
