The Path


Posted by Hello
There stretches a path through the woods
Winding through streams and mounds

Safety and lamps light the dark way
While sage company lightens the day
‘Stick to the good path’, you’ll hear them say
‘For the knowledge of our fathers won’t lead you astray'

But the dark forest leans out and beckons to me
With all its glory and mystery
The unknown wilderness call out to me
Promising challenges and destiny

A world where light would lurk among shadows
Tricking and taunting in a deceptive dance
Secrets and danger hanging heavy in the air
Swirling mist fogging all sight

Every step forward a wary gamble
A slash through doubt and challenge
The trampled moss underneath my feet
Traces of a new path for time to follow

hey, it's just like physics class! you keep trying to find out new stuff, and go into the realms of darkness - that's like the stuff you don't know, and the wise old physics teacher, bhuvana, tells you to stick to the path (because she's scared of the dark) :)
hey, sorry about the rotten comparison, but i couldn't resist!
it's a really good one, man!
