The pathway

I knew the path

I knew it well

I followed it with my eyes closed

So sure of ending up in the right place

I never thought I would end up in an empty space

A space filled with nothingness

A space filled with air

Yet I couldn’t breathe no matter how hard I tried

And I struggled in despair

I opened my eyes back up

Half of my heart full of emotion

And the other half full of devotion

I would reach the end of the path

No matter what it takes

I will never end up in another blank empty space

My heart racing, I took another step

Without realizing I had leapt.
