Poem

The road ahead

Seems both

Terrifyingly short

And at the

Same time

Infinitely long

And I know

This is just

The beginning

Of a journey

The duration

Of which

I do not know

Which leaves me

To do

Only what I can

So, I gather

My things

My Bags

My traveling shoes

And take my

Blackthorn in hand

And step onto

The pavement

Of the future

For that is all

One can do

When there is

An unknown

Path

That must be

Taken

The voyage of

A thousand

Miles

Begins with

A single

Foot

On the Road

Ahead
