The Onward Path

When the path is not yet clear,
Decisions can't be made,
For what is moving forward,
When a boat in circles spins,

Instead of moving forward,
Find the inner lock inside,
And avenues awaken,
When removed now are the pins,

For what is truly onward,
When the keys unlock the doors,
The avenues forsaken,
Lost their glory long ago,

The past is truly nowhere,
And the future does not rest,
When what was once awake with life,
Has turned to ice and snow,

Stand up and remember,
That you are the path you seek,
Do not allow the brazen folds,
To force you on their way,

Become the path you dream of,
Let the inner show you how,
And soon enough the limelight,
Will stand brightly clear as day.
