The Path Ahead
The path ahead is rocky,
and my calluses are not yet deep.
To take a step
is to bleed,
to stain the stones with a marker–
something all my own to say
“Look at where I’ve come from.”
Two roads diverge,
but everyone knows that
there’s only ever one path
forward.

Such a sensitive description of moving on. Love the image of bloodstains as a marker on the stones.
