Crossroads

Caught you checking your reflection in the mirror,
Walking the unpaved path, protruding stones, dingy alleys
At crossroads of life as dusk sets in,
Between the blanks of life, a memory that lingers
The quiet tranquil night and the pup rolled close to his mother
At crossroadsof life,as night calls upon,


The moon and the thousand stars embedded in the sky
The shadows of a caress that reminds you
Of the crossroads of life…

Paths chosen, threaded, forgotten and then chosen again
The hands that held you tight in their grasp
To let go, in the crossroads of life

Shadows in dreams, tales of sins
Love has a cost, a price- that we call compromise
That you decide… at the crossroads of life

Lost eyes blinded by the morning light,
Caught your reflection by the mirror, walking the alley last night
Between crossing paths with the shadows of yesterday,
At the crossroads of life.
