Paths

Paths

 

Follow me for I shall guide you

Follow me for I shall guide you

Follow me for I shall guide you

Follow your own path? I know the way.

 

I know the way, I ‘ve walked it many times

I know the way, I ‘ve walked it many times

I know the way, I ‘ve walked it many times

Still! You want to walk your own path?

 

Fine, you follow your own path

Fine, you follow your own path

Fine, you follow your own path

Your own Path! It’s wrong, we’ll see!

 

You got here but how is that possible

You got here but how is that possible

You got here but how is that possible

You’re sure you followed your own path?

 

I’ve just learned a very simple message

I’ve just learned a very simple message

I’ve just learned a very simple message

Many, many paths lead to the same destinations.

  1. You’ve used this repetition really, really well to make a super point in the very last line! We learn, as you learn throughout the poem, that many paths can lead to the one spot. Lovely writing, Brian!
