The Roads of Life
Posted October 8, 2014
on:There are many roads in life that take us through
Our journeys here on earth;
It starts from the moment we are born, at our birth.
Some of us start out with a bumpy road
While others start out with a smoother crossroad;
Sometimes we go through some roads that are like gravel,
In other words they are rough
And if we go too fast or are not careful enough
We could lose control.
This is when we get caught up in alcohol, drugs
Or something that we know we shouldn’t be doing
That is damaging to the soul.
This will lead you to the steep hill roads
That are so difficult to climb,
Feeling as though you are carrying a heavy load in no time,
But if we choose to work on improving ourselves
Then we can make it to the top.
Once you make it there
It is like a fun ride, just like the exciting drop
On a roller-coaster ride;
Sometimes when we reach the bottom
Things that had improved in your life may have now changed
Making you want to run away and hide.
These are the moments though that we may get stuck
On what road in life that we should then take
Because we are worried if we take the wrong one then
Our happiness in life may break.
We may not always start out by taking the right road
But consider those wrong turns as lessons to be learned.
Eventually you will be on the right path you need to be on
And sometimes it happens when this you have actually earned.
