Arrow straight, solid and true
Lies before me my destiny.
Stable, predictable and secure
Happiness and love I can foresee.
The cobbled rock strong walk,
Lays before me and I know,
Off it I will not fall.
Success is guaranteed and love will flow.
But dare I glimpse to the left or right,
To the unpredictability and insecurity I might sight?
The unknown adventure, crazy freedom roads
Colours, flavours so rich there are loads.
Daily between these paths I am pulled.
By the hidden paths I may be fooled,
Into thinking this is where I should remain.
Will my joy be fulfilling or a vacant drain?
Every now and then to other paths I will flee,
But to my security and love I will always retreat.
