Choice are made
or made for you
You love the path
And a detour appears
you meander off
And the detour greets you
A new energy of fear and joy
propels you to the next fork
You choose another direction
You listen to your heart
So did the path choose you?
Before you were blind to forks and detours
Confined to the path ahead
where your footsteps led you
Driven by the expectations of others
But as your soul awakened your eyes opened
You feel in your feet the beating of your heart
Your expectations drive you
And the opportunities surround you
Now you can go in any direction
