THE SAME STEP

once again,
i've reached that shore,
where once in my life,
i was bound to feel sore.
somehow it seems better today,
but still fear,
the fate it bears..

so many voices,
around me echo,
telling me there is a way,
yet somehow ,
the same voices pull me back,
to tell me i'm far, far away...

its just a small step,
yet its footprints,
are to decide my life,
where will i go on my future path,
no one, but know,
except some...

the path of glory,
yet scary,
it might be bright,
or full of fright,
i'll never know,
for one full day,
but at one point of time,
it'll come face to face,
bringing tears of sorrow and joy..

its a battle aginst none,
yet its outcome rages me apart,
barricading against none,
yet holding me back,
to reach the path.
here i'm today,
on the same step,
waiting verdict,
to reach me today......

The same step is not so bad, as long as it is taken with the joy to experience it. You have wonderful words to say and it is an awakening everytime I read poems about what is deemed as the obvious. Each time you are in the same step, I guess the maturity to look at is as different is surprising.

When you take the same step, it will be a wonderful feeling. It will be a firmer step. The clarity we seek in the confusing thoughts, and the facts that might emerge from that is always an experience to cherish. Great poetry! Keep writing.
