DIRECTIONS

As we trek across vast seas and mountains in hope of a better existence

Some leaving behind so much

Still having intense pain from their wombs

Double effect if all those dreams don’t materialize

Dramatic outlooks without failure

Like looking through a stain-glass window

The reflections are tainted

Eye contact is seeing only within the frost of realness

In some instances leaving impressions of false dreams

To find that golden pavement of non-existence

Where ones’ inner strength to endure

Becomes that inner core to rely on when reality comes

That’s the green - not always as green as the photo says

Because great photographers can create illusions

For you, being the one, to see water in the dessert

Where there is no sea for thousands of days walk

For those who are on the balancing pole…

…if you can’t handle disappointment, failure - stay home

How much you need to succeed will demand on your sacrifice

But some scarifies are too large

In comparison to end achievement

And with all these words being said

Always believe in your spirit for fulfillment of a dream

Especially the one that’s yours

Local to international is never too far of a walk

Thousands of days journey

Is one way to take comfort in your life

Because if you truly don’t’ try

Nothing in this world will make you feel fulfilled

So travel with that mild zephyr from Zaire to Zurich one step at a time

Life is nothing without your rightful premiere

And you know deep within you

Someday you will take off never looking back

Because at that stage in your life

What’s truly back there…

…is not of your interest anymore!

…reversing forward, future is history!

Writtenments…

…one hundred and twenty-eight of one thousand
