The Right Path?

So long she had walked this road

The twists and turns had sometimes been hard

But her footsteps they had slowed

Her way now seemed barred

The sense of bewilderment

Overpowering her soul

Her body completely spent

Life flashing by out of her control

The pathway before her no longer clear

So many different directions she could turn

Each one holding so much fear

Her mind unable to discern

Which path would lead her

And her heart to happiness

Her mind and vision a blur

The correct path hard to choose through all the mess

As she stood there at the crossroads

Lost and alone

Faith in the world erodes

The pain she felt was all her own

No one could save her from her fate

Decision made

Each step she hoped would take her from all the hate

As she walked she silently prayed

Prayed she had made the right choice

Hoped the path she took would lead her to joy

All around she could hear a whispered voice

Whispering it’s desire to destroy

She knew then she had taken the wrong path

Knew she would forever wonder this path of distress

Leading herself open to his wrath

As his poison began to infest

Her soul forever tormented

Set to wonder lost in the mire

Her once happy soul now demented

As her body was taken by the devil’s fire.
