The Journey Taken Poem by Sean Green
The Journey Taken
Between the choice of dawn's light
and the judgment of the dusk
lay the affairs that resolve
to decide a future morn
failures spun from the same cloth
as success that draws the likes
ask only for an equal nod
acknowledgment of two paths
the low road is passion's place
little better than prevailing heights
where the mind consumes itself
in the orgy of certitude
the lessons learned or pain dodged
provide a map that describes
the journey taken separately
from destinations preordained
avoiding landmarks based on lies
while they're truths in the large
are the fallacies that choice precludes
while moving towards the edge of night.
