A kind of... coming of age poem. See what you think.
▪◙ Twilight Crossing ◙▪
I stand at Twilight Crossing
Twixt a thousand flickering lights
As a thousand whispering voices
Try to tell me wrong and right
The paths before are long and hard
Though I will walk but one
And thought I know not where they lead
My journey starts before the night is done
The choice of a lifetime before me
And all my past behind
I must consider long and hard
Before I can decide
The blood is singing in my veins
My hair whips round my face
The winds of change are stirring
And I soon must leave this place
So I'll choose the path's unknown
And fate may bring what she may
There is no return from here
And at this crossroads I cannot stay
As my foot steps out upon the path
I know my choice is right
The Twilight fades behind me
As I walk the Path of Light
