Poem: Walking Through the Gap

Walking through the gap,
With cliffs on either side.
The turns and twists bewilder the unsuspecting,
Through well-made illusions,
Calling forth your greatest emotions and hope.
Denying the path laid before you,
Do you run astray from your desired goal?
Or do you find your own journey,
One with a sure foot,
And sturdy step?
Mind those and that which call away,
To other shadows,
To cause a treacherous fall.
Should you reach your destination,
You may choose,
To stay or carry on,
To a new and distant place.
