no title

Pushed quietly along

Towards the end of the hall

That which awaits I no longer know

I thought to find a quick and keen end

Yet know the path twists again

Seems I am here now

No longer ridiculous

At least in most senses

Yet young none the less

Please hold back and wait

Realize there is always some odd

It cant be helped

Seems to seep in and take control

Giggling the whole while

The wild comes to grab my heart

Swallowed by the flames

Though there is no understanding

No known reason this happens

Just a sudden time a quick glance

Then the hallway it ends

All that is there is another turn

Another path to choose from

Never to find the end of the search

Fighting against all the push and pull

So many different ways

What about the direction i wish to go

Is it so hard to understand

All this noise clouds the truth

No longer am I able to see right

I cannot find the way i wanted to go

Though everyone's voices rattle in my brain

All the possible directions to choose from

Which one is it that I wanted

What card is it that i wished to pull for myself

Disregarding my ideals I rashly turn down the next path

Unsure of what I've done

Or the path I've decided upon

If only there was a sign to light my way

Something that i wanted to end with

A common goal perhaps

Though now like the youth my age

I wander

Aimless

In a world I couldve had on a spoon
