walking beyond the road less traveled


The clear night sky compelled my attention--
full moon beaming at its finest and stars dazzling as ever.
The dry breeze played a sonata
as it was accompanied by the tapping of the leaves.
Serenity bragged tranquility all over the place.

What a complete mockery!

In my mind, chaos best portrayed the pause of a nanosecond.
Oh, nothing but a series of unfortunate events seemed to be a pleasant respite
to a man who has chosen to walk beyond the road less traveled--
where no one, not even a few, has dared tread.
Was this anger? Was this loneliness? Or was it plain fear?




I closed my eyes and opened my heart.




And in that so familiar place,
i found Passion;
i found Companionship;
i found Trust.
Finally, I saw beauty in the still of the night.
