Where This New Adventure Will Take Me

Poem about my latest dwellings, dweelings, and burdens...

By Bethany SandersPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

Ahhh...

is it not splendid?

going

back

and

forth

back

forth

and

back

and

forth

as I

create I go

back

forth

forward

back

sideways to the midway

hoping to reach for my dreams

but alas,

my dream is not what it seems

I need freedom to create

and freedom I did not receive

but an endless cycle of...

back

and

forth

and

forward

and

back

Not knowing what

I truly needed to be free

was the new adventure that awaited me

Now here I stand

readying my ego

hoping and wanting

my heart to reach it’s fullness

To tell me this is the path I must take

Here I go

Down to

Where this new adventure will take me

PS:

Thanks for reading this poem and the beginning of my newest adventure. I had an old habit of going in circle after cycle and not following what was good for me. Instead, I kept doing what I expressed in my poem. And yes, dweelings is not a word, and I wouldn't recommend looking it up. I hope someday I can create freely without worry if I'm good, or bad, or disagreeable. I can't wait to see where this new adventure will take me!
