Choice of path.



stroll along the gravel
gusts of wind remind you
epiphany is your feeling of love
smiling and blushing

look out the window
useful only for what it can do
a medium for the experiences
for its the only way to see the world

gaze at the length of the line
ponder a moment for it leads you
for you it has always been an unknown
risk it, abandon the apprehension

not blindly, not foolishly
seek the light and the truth
foresee craters in the road
forsake the hearsay of the faceless

for you see, i am at the end
waiting at the extremity of the distance
still watching the amaranth rose
its petals ravaged by the raindrops and the cold


it rests upon icy fingers
held out in reach of you. only.
place your hand gently, on its stalk
encompassed in icy shards of time

no.

still.

there is still warmth.

solely within the rose.
