Destination Unknown

In the realm of the unknown I alone stand,

Seeking who I am, where life's road expands ,

Uncharted horizons, questions in flight,

Where does home lie, in day or night?

Disappointment's weigh, heavy to bear,

Disillusionment's sting, a world so unfair,

Dreams shattered, the soul so in despair,

A love so forelorn and reality crumbled, castles of desire lay waste,

Yet from these ruins, shall a new force embrace?

Destruction begets a potent rebirth,

Rising from ashes, the devil scorned or the saints worth,

The journey ever evolving, takes a new form,

From the old and gnarled we shall all transform

The end is a start, or is the start the true ending?

This juncture, a crossroads where destinies entwine,

The path; a circle or a quagmire, the infinite realm of possible divine,

A destiny and a life already created and lived many lifetimes ago,

So familiar yet so painfully fresh, so much so...

From the past to the present, we steadily tread,

Into the unknown, where dreams shall be fed.

Hope; the only path that shines bright and true,

For the destination is truly shrouded yet anew,

In this vast unknown do we dare to take flight?

Maybe venturing forth there will be a beacon of light

Shining true and bright taking us to the utmost heights,

Or maybe it is the long journey that will reveal the inner fight.
