Goldilocks

A poem about where I am in my life right now.

My world just got a bit bigger

The road I was on came to an end

I had the option to go left or right

I don’t know what waits ahead

 

Each choice sets me on a path

I can follow or turn back

There’s a row of doors before me

Which one is calling my name?

 

He hands me a ring of keys

And tells me one will make me happy

I tried to ask him which one

But he just laughed and said “it’s up to you”

 

So I put on a couple of masks

To see how they would fit

I kind of felt like Goldilocks

Attempting to find the one that’s just right

 

This street is anything but smooth

I’ve been bumped and bruised

I let the world shove me around

But I’m the one who’s in control now

 

Compromise is a part of life

We don’t always get what we want

But I refuse to give up on my dream

I’m just taking a detour

 

I’ve learned a lot on this journey

I’ve faced plenty of hardships

But I know at the end of this road

I’ll find my very own rainbow

Life… the journey is thing. A rather interesting blend of fairytales carries your theme to the denouement.
