Seventeen

A Life behind you,
eagerly explored.
Unknowing of what lies ahead,
but so curious to find out
what it will be.
A path set,
a direction to head in,
based on your expectations
of your Life to come.
But then... Out of the blue...
Unexpected...

Eighteen

Unexpected...
the direction is adjusted,
because another path crossed yours.
Or was added to yours...
The situation now created
made you choose to redirect.
Unexpected... yet known all along,
a confession merged two paths...

Nineteen...

A confession on something
that you saw coming.
Principles hesitatingly set aside.
Wondering how this would develop,
wondering how Life would develop.
Desiring, longing, wishing,
hoping, looking forward, impatience.
Until finally that first touch,
that first embrace.
Efforts rewarded,
Value of Life increased.
Another redirection,
a decision made by two.
Commitment...

Twenty...

A new step in Life,
the start of a new era.
A future ahead,
unknown, yet with big plans.
The Life as it was,
still so curious to find out
what lies ahead.
But now with a slight difference:
the path taken,
holds footsteps of two. 		Twentythree

A Life behind me,
eagerly explored.
Unsure of what lies ahead,
yet curious to find out
what it will be.
A path set,
marked with scars,
knowing that Life
can give a hard time.
But then... Out of the blue...
Unexpected...

Twentyfour...

Unexpected...
the view of Life changed,
because another path crossed mine.
Or was added to mine...
The situation now created
made the scars vanish from the path.
Unexpected... and finally overcoming the fear,
a confession merged two paths...

Twentyfive...

A confession on something
that I was wrestling with for quite some time.
Principles hesitatingly set aside.
Wondering if Life was playing just a trick on me.
Desiring, longing, wishing,
hoping, looking forward, impatience.
Until finally that first touch,
that first embrace.
Glad that I refused to believe
that Life would tear open old scars.
Value of Life increased.
Another redirection,
a decision made by two.
Commitment...

Twentysix...

A new step in Life,
the start of a new era.
A future ahead,
unknown, yet with big plans.
The Life as it was,
still so curious to find out
what lies ahead.
But now with two slight differences:
the path taken, is free of scars
and holds footsteps of two.
