Roads

On the road passing an old home
In a country where I thought I loved
But maybe never did
It makes it hurt that it ever happened

Where much is lost
Much is learned
The difference between loss and gain
Lies in the denial of the beholder

I stayed for so long
Where noone needed me to be
Because of an imagined reality
And lack of correct illusions

Fate takes us where it wants to
When we are afraid of taking control
Only decisions made with the soul
Give way to what they call Destiny

So much time wasted
Thinking we know what we're doing
And even more, trying to change direction
On a path we might never dare to take

Full of life and hopes
Powers we've never been using
Fears of all kinds and sizes
Known and unknown

Godless, yet God-conscious
Lost in labyrinths of young desires
Imagined revelations
All leading to roads not taken

Roads leading to new opportunities
To take control of our fears, and of love
Of Reality, and of Destiny
It will hurt if it never happens
