Challenging Path
#WorldPoetryDay
I was in a bus, traveling,
When we passed beneath a lengthy, dark bridge that resembled a tunnel,
I fell asleep and upon awakening,
it seemed as though everything had changed.
Suddenly, everyone I know stops being familiar to me,
And never in my life have I encountered them,
I muttered to myself, "What happened? The fact that we went under that bridge has something to do with why I'm this way.
Perhaps a strange force intervened and altered the situation,
Can I still turn around and go the right way?
the path that leads to my family,
the joyful one even though there are numerous issues that can be resolved in some way,
the challenging path but one in which I learned a lot.
