pathmaker
there may lay
many paths
infront of you
some are paved
some are not
some are worn
some are not
some are marked
some are not
some
however
do not exist
until
you choose
to make it so
till the effort is made
till the work is done
to clear the way
to have a path
to walk upon
what work is this
what must we do
for each of us
the answer is different
the question is different
but always
human
the quest for why
or where
or when
or who
even what
answers we seek
and hope are easy
but rarely are
it leaves the brush
the thick growth
of worry
of pain
of love
of shame
of worth
of gain
of nothing
and all that remains
for us to clear
and pull from ground
and open up sky
horizon to see
just knowing
it must be
what it is we rarely know
just simply that we must go
and walk this path
of our own creation
setting upon
a reckless journey
knowing the risk
is part reward
part lesson
part gift
that we share
with those to whom
we mostly care
this path we make
for ourselves
can really be
the gift we give
to ourselves
for which our human soul
requires
as much as our lungs
require air
