Path

Choices in life?

There were so many paths to choose from,
But I only chose one,
I shut out all the others
And kept walking on and on.

I never thought it would come to this,
I never imagined I'd stop,
Something didn't seem right to me,
Was there something that I missed?

And don't blame them for this halt of mine,
For I made this choice alone.
They weren't the ones who broke the chain.
I broke it on my own.

Maybe there's no turning back,
I've walked this path for too long,
But I will break all bounds,
To reach square one,
To find the path where I belong.

Don't flatter me with some petty explanation,
Because this time I really don't care,
Don't get hurt when I say this to you,
I can't lead myself to despair.

And all you people, shut your mouths!
You won't build my life for me,
You're no one to deny my decision,
You don't choose who I get to be.

I don't want to live a life of regret,
I've shut my ears and eyes,
And I ran, away from you, from everyone,
I chose to walk two paths at once,
But when it comes down to it,
I'll only choose one.
