Rocky Roads Poem by Melissa Patty

Traveling down the path were lies broken stone
Strolling with baggage that suffocates of what been left alone
Letting the breeze cleanse the coldness of pain
Of the many emotions that may be difficult to explain
The road seems so long and winded with the endless destruction
Mind overload leads to mental disruption
Lumps and bumps through the journey ahead
Deep thoughts spiral with answers still left unsaid
Through the road of strength to strive through many twists and turns
Letting your inner self be free from scolding burns
Take each step under natures wing
As life is precious to in what it can bring
Walking through many diversions will lead into the path that is right
Always trust your own instinct no matter whats crushing your thoughts in spite
Your life experiences will be rocky and may think there's no way to break free
Being on this road I've learnt to always turn to the path I know whats best for me
As you begin to get to the end of the road, don't turn back keep looking ahead
Strength has given me a knew sense of direction which has led me into the path I now tread.
