The Crossroad Of Time Poem by sookdeo manansingh manansingh

The pathway of destiny
depends on the decision we make
sometimes we forget
our relationships with whom
we choose to forsake
when at the crossroads of time
the opportunity to transform
our lives we must start
all over again
to climb over the horizon
and forget the past
with all the challenges
and clouds of pain

everything seems to drift away
when the imagination of fear
enters the mind
we look into the mirror of the self
hopeless as though
we have become blind
we forget to unlock
the hidden treasure
which gives us the inspiration
to live
the world have an abundance
for all of us
should we only abide
by wisdom and look to forgive

the future is already written
in our hearts
if only we should open our eyes
to see
we are so trapped
by the illusions of the mind
that we forget to recognize
we are free
the shadows of doubt
block the carriageway of success
which makes us fall
our determination must drive
away the darkness
and lead us where
our rightful duty call

we are so fortunate
to be gifted with knowledge
to paint life by what we dream
the hands of nature
will take us wherever we want to go
like the pathway of a stream
like stars in heaven
we all have a purpose
on earth to do what is right
into the distance ahead
we shall all have reason
to believe that we are of
the same one true light.
