Paths

I sit very quietly
the world moving
in all directions.
I don’t know which
way to move
so I sit quietly
and wait for what
might come.
I look out the window
the world still moves
then I see everything in my life
my friends
my family
soccer
school
American Heritage Girls.
Then I see what the world seepeople fighting
people dying
shooting each other
drug dealers
wars.
The world wants me too
go one way but I choose
to stay on the path
I
am
on.
