Crossroad

Crossroad

A Poem by Lorelei1969
"

That feeling you get when you reach a new chapter in life

"

Feeling restless…

Anxious, unsettled…

My soul on edge…

Looking over my shoulder…

My hair pulled by the galaxies…

The stars whisper in my ear…

Are these voices

Of far off worlds

Calling me away…

Like the world on its axis

I spin…spin…spin…

I know I can’t stay…

Will I fly

To God only knows where…

Will I fall…will I crash…

Will I soar above the clouds…

Am I to rejoin the stars…

My light stream leaving behind…

The softest glow, the faintest of shimmers…

A gentle hint of warmth…

Spinning…spinning…spinning

The universe is calling…

Will I touch the face of heaven…

I just know I can’t stay…

Lorelei1969,
This makes me think of what goes through a cicada's mind as it waits to emerge. Their sad lives of more than a decade, almost two, spent in the dark under the soil, what is the purpose of a life spent like that? Waiting, waiting? AHA! Daylight! Fresh air! FREEDOM! and SEX! SEX! SEX! for three or four whole weeks and then you die!
Nature, you can have it!
