Poem: Threshold

Staring back at what once was
Nothing lye’s there for me
Ahead is everything
What will be?
Where must I go?
Stagnant, I cannot move
Afraid to move forward
And see nothingness behind me
She calls
Just beyond the threshold I see
Her smile, her hands waving to come
Forward
It is the future, she will guide me
Letting me make my choices
Sometimes dropping clues
Or just leading me blindly
Should I cross?
I know I can’t live in the past
But I know the comfort there
Excitement fills my mind
And confusion, I must press on
She calls again her sister time waits
For no one
I must choose
But what will I loose?
I have everything to gain
The riches await me
I must move forward
No matter the pain over
The past
