the change
from one

day to
the next

you are

searching
for a path

as if it
exists but

if the truth
is nothing

is laid out
it means

you will
have to

carve a
new path

understand
the truth

of carving

you will have
to destroy

things you love
and you don’t

really get to
choose

things will happen
you will cause

pain in others
and you will
have to live

with that pain
true leadership

is lonely

you will have
followers but

they will never
understand

your sacrifice
