Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.<br /> -William Wordsworth


She stands at a cross roads, looking from left to right, trying to decide which path to take

 

She turns to the left, where she sees a dark and dismal sky, where the path breaks up into tiny shards of gravel

 

She then turns to the right, where she sees a pleasant blue sky marked with wispy white clouds, where the path transforms into even blocks of cobblestone

 

Could she, struck with life's hardships, caught in life's desolation, choose the path which will lead her home?

 

Her eyes drift to and fro, summing up both paths, attempting to decide on just one

 

Should she choose a path of dark or light, tragedy or happiness, cloudiness or sunshine?

 

Her mind confused, she kneels on the ground, folds her arms, and sends a message from her heart to the One who will guide her home.
