At The Crossroads


At the crossroads of desire,

I hesitate;
though I’m prodded on by fire,
I choose to wait.

The Warriors of Light
say the timing isn’t right,
so I try with all my might
to gain repose.
What haunts my dreams at night
brings about an urge to fight;
base instincts are a force I must oppose.


With confusion in the air,

my thoughts perplex;
any blueprints I prepare,
my mind rejects.

As the intellect decides
on the worth of different sides,
intuition overrides
the plans I plot.
My Higher Self provides
clear directives as my guides.
Expansiveness untangles human thought.


When emotions overflow,

I’m prone to grieve;
then the feelings others show,
I misconceive.

As the tidal waters surge,
any hurt I did submerge
is more likely to emerge
and show its face.
Once past and present merge,
healing energies can purge
the sorrow so, new love, I can embrace.


With reality up front,

discretion rules;
grounded, practical, and blunt
are earth signs’ tools.

Ego wants what will endure
in its need to feel secure;
when direction is unsure,
there is no peace.
Perceptions must mature
so my faith in Life is pure.
Attachment to the need to know must cease!
