Fork Road in Life

at the fork road looking, confused and thinking 

my life a journey that brought me at this point

at a standstill, with indecisive voices singing within my mind 

all screaming with anxiety, speaking with uncertainty

i look around to see many walking  on this journey

they aim-fully choose their next path

but i wonder, do they pause 

giving even a second of insecure thought

to the choice that they have made

or is me that stands alone

afraid and unsure,

curious and frightened about the future 

concerned and in doubt of my past.

I stand here until the battling voices have silenced 

and i alone remain to ponder my next move 

and as i look upon my horizon with conviction to delay

a single voice rises up in a whisper and says

"You have to choose..."
