The Crossroads

I lay and wonder what the future holds
I can see a distance that I must cross
I need an answer to save our souls
That returns the most with the least cost


If life were that easy I would have it all
But life requires work, strife, and sorrow,
And to this task we all must fall
In order to find a new beautiful tomorrow

At the crossroads I am lost, confused
Looking to you for answers that you can't give
I sit and wonder, alone, bemused,
Trying to find a new path that I must live.

Still, I am waiting at your beck and call
Hoping you will find what you need
Until then I'll give life my all
Else you will just bite the hand that feeds.
