In the beginning,
We all start out
On the same road.
Traveling together
In pairs and groups.
Then,
We tend to veer
Away from each other.
Start to walk down,
Our own paving roads.
Some following others,
Not knowing what to do.
Doing what they're told
To get acceptance from them.
Others following old paths,
Curious of what is beyond.
That's where curiosity,
Killed the cat.
The rest stay to wait,
Wait for more to come.
Or for their time to leave.
Paths, which to chose
Or where to start one.
Or should we stay and wait?
So many choices,
But
Which answer is correct?
To lead,
Is to be followed.
People to be just like you,
Your uniqueness begins to fade.
To follow,
Is to be lead.
Mocking people perhaps?
But you aren't who you are.
To stay,
Is to do nothing.
Why do nothing and waste,
Your life away.
What does that make you?
Make your own path,
You choose what you do.
But
You could wander,
Onto an old path.
So I ask,
Did you
Lead, follow, or stay?

- Just thought I'd let ya know that it honestly has nothing to do with "life" itself. It's really a deep question put into thought asking you "What did you do with your life?"

- Overall a complication of what life is about. It's really much more simple than that. It's just Yea or Nay. Think about it.

- I obstructed! This is more weak, unimaginative garbage. You would do well to try something more coherent, before working on an open piece. Get some imagery work down. 1/5.
