road of choice
Some plié their paved roads with desire
Leaping and thrusting, they attack their audience with their soulful might
Some smear their paths with the colors of their heart
Bleeding, they pump the world with their expression
Pluck, pluck, Pluck- I hear the violins sing their unearthly sensations
Their melodies fuse and shackle my soul, commanding my unbroken attention
Some yield the pen of their impassioned declarations
Inking and blotting, they smear their path with reflection and contemplation
Some instruct the youth, preaching the maxims of life
Courageous and brave, they challenge the confines of social conformity
They compel our thirst for knowledge, directing our insatiable hunger
Hoping and wanting, I follow them blindly-
Stumbling, I trudge the path of my ambiguous desires
Some glance upon the ruins of my impassioned impulses
Some unwilling to extend a hand, taught by a world of indifference
I grasp and grab for my gallant heart that gallops away in my gambled journey
Control, I yearn to relinquish the uncertainty that plagues me
Like a child, I feel entranced by the unknown
Bewitched with captivation, my soul feverishly ventures beyond the point of salvation
Pulsing with adrenaline, I feel the rush cascade through my veins
Some surpass me on this winding road
Some twirl and whirl past, swaying to an inaudible melody
Leaping and dancing, I yearn for their ornate elegance and grace
Some carol and chant, hymning harmonies of soulful rejuvenation
Fluttering with sentiment, my heart beats to their chants of guidance
I desire to leap, plié, and paint my worldly pleasures upon the road of my acceptance
My road of choice
