Roads (O.S.I.)

Hi bloggers,

I wrote this poem a while back but it seems fitting for this week's O.S.I. theme roads.

My eyes discern a fork in the road
Two roads stretched wide into the universe
Bending me into their quiet brilliance
Sun baking me in the desert
I'm sinking in red clay
Melting in the heat of day
One road leads to poverty, the other wealth
One is filled with sorrow, the other mirth
Yet, they lay before me like twins
There is a battle within
A choice of destiny and fate
Faith interjects itself, God's face is matchless
My weary soul sinks deeper
I cannot chose a road
