Content Warning: Discussions of Future Uncertainties
I was once informed
that
life travels blissfully when moving ahead
but if you turn around,
the road you constructed
yearns to retrace your steps.
Retreating,
being surrounded
by our memories.
Offering an escape,
a sense of comfort
like a warm blanket
during the winter.
It is so tempting
Should I stay.
Should I try
to relive the beginning.
Isn’t it better that way?
Or should I carry on
with my journey
i’m torn
Am I seeing things
through rose-coloured glasses
or am I
afraid
of facing
what’s right
in front of me
