Apex

Though the wind still shakes me
Weary leaves they fall once more
The willows that once wept, they dance
And for the first time I can forget before.

People they pass, and people they pause,
As there are many ways that they can go,
At one point I wouldn't have had the chance,
But it's easily hard for me to know.

To my left is a door, opened yet closed,
Which would have taken me back to where I knew,
It's familiar green glows with recognition,
But the places I can go there from are few.

To my right, the red has faded.
At one time it shone bright with passion. Of that I'm sure.
And previously decisions obscure my vision
And what was once emptiness is no longer pure.

In front of me, I can see, my fears
So clearly. The vastness of the blue unknown,
Which my eyes once saw as so so far away,
Doesn't matter as my heart has grown.

In between, neither here or there,
The beautiful blankness of words still unsaid,
Maybe I'll go straight ahead.
And not care about what happened yesterday.
