paths

the sun lights one path

while darkness dwells on the other

to think i have to choose

i have to discover which to do

shall i go right where nothing is left

or left where nothing is right

maybe i will never know

i could do both by weaving between

or maybe never choose a path

should i turn back and go down my past

never! i have to live in the present 

to decide the future not to fix the past

i know which path i should take

the one that is often overlooked

the one that is in the middle

the one of both light and dark

choosing which to act upon when the time comes

the path where things and left and things are right

and yet the future is unknown
