slip away

Over my shoulder I see,
from just where
I did come.

Lessons learned
have made me who
I have become,

and put me
in this place
where I now am.


In the mirror I see
this place where
I now be.


I know just how
into this place,
I have arrived 

though it was
mostly just
not planned.


I look ahead

to where

my future

just might lead.



and I wonder where

I do belong,

and if there is

a place for me,



in this

never ending journey

that has no end to see.




Will I find

that hand

that fits

and will not

slip away?
