Pathfinder

A Poem

Oh, what a familiar place

To visit once again

No matter what I tell myself,

I’m a fool to think anything else

Like it won’t have the same end

x

No matter the bitter taste

I’ve grown used to the flavor

It’s too late to turn back time,

Mistakes they are, I accept as mine

A consequence I’m left to savor

x

Though, not all was for waste

A star appeared from within the dark

An unforeseen circumstance,

Granting me another chance

To fully give my heart

x

And so, I’ll look up into space

And not give up on the day

For now I’ve learned that even the lost,

The ones of us that pay the cost

Can still locate their way
