Crossroads

Crossroad

I’m in the valley of discontent

Where my passion brews, and my heart is rent.

The way stretches dark and long

As I march on wearily to an unknown song.

I pray for a clearing, a cliff or a peak

As relentlessly onward a haven I seek.

Where is it leading?  Where will I go?

What will result if the journey end in “no”?

What is He asking?  Am I allowed to request?

When will the flood come to turn the tide of this test?

The bridge looms ahead — to cross or to burn.

My feet on the road must yield and not turn.
