Up to You


Dave Oakes


I see the fork in the road up ahead
Wondering which is the path I need
Not wish to feel the tears that I shed
My heart has only fuzzy signs to read.
I need to know better what lies before
What happens as a result of each road
I know that it will effect my core
That I must chance what it may bode.
Am I brave enough to try my luck
On the road that seems to promise all
Perhaps its a trap with quicksand to suck
Or a blind ridge just waiting to help me fall.
So much work and such a very hard choice
That must be made before I move ahead
But, if in my soul I feel all that I voice
Then I know I have nothing at all to dread.
The signs seem clearer every moment to me
As my heart has begun to light each step of the way
I know the path on which I was meant to be
Which path I should follow this and every day.
