Poem

[Angrist]

As I walk in the night,
the road reveals itself before me.
Silently I follow without question,
until the road splits in two.
To the left is a road I've known all my life,
To the right is a road I've never seen before.

As I take the left,
I notice something isn't right.
Things are not as they should be,
The world once so familiar is changing before my eyes.
I feel the urge to turn around,
but am afraid to do so.

As I look back,
the road I just walked on is not there.
Not knowing what is happening,
I feel an ancient fear come up in my heart.
Terror seizes me and my head begins to spin,
yet I've always known this would happen.

Now I am lost in space. time. dimensions.
I keep on walking, hoping to ever come home again.
But deep in my heart I know I won't.

I need love desperately.
