The Middle Ground

The Middle Ground

There is a giant fork in the middle of the road

The path that you are on is overgrown

The weeds of doubt are left unkept

The seeds you've sown are growing fast 

But the other path is gleaming with fantastic warmth 

As fresh new sunlight is shining there  

Like gravity the pull is so immense 

With the strength of hope you can't recompense 

As you saunter on your life long journey 

There will be tough decisions you will have to make  

With a sense of purpose the choice you take

Will either make of brake you for goodness sake 

You are undecided and with feelings still

For the path that lingers with emotions

Now you are standing still and wondering why

For the sake of the seedlings you want to try

To find a way back onto that beaten path

That once bloomed with sunlight bathing in hope

But the other path is so close at hand

This is a hard road that you are traveling on

So you figure in your mind that you will take your time

And find a way to carry on this journey you have to take

Because the wrong choice could be detrimental

If chosen in haste for the sake of the seedlings
