Alight

I came to the end of the road today only to tell someone it's time to alight.
Alight? they asked here in this strange place where do I go next.
next to the road, that will lead you to your next destination only to realize without reservation.
Alight again it was said, what else can I do instead; I don't feel the need to get off just yet.
If you do not alight, you may miss your destiny a destiny that is filled with dreams.
How can I dream when I am not ready only to realize I was born ready?
Alight I must go to get to my next destination and maybe I'll find my revelation.
So long everyone that was in my past it is time for me to move forward.
So, I can create another past, a past that will lead me to endless books.
I came to the end of a road that was not meant to last.
Now the vision is crystal clear in front of me I don't mind alighting for my next destiny.


Thanks for taking time to read as this poem pushed me to use the word Alight to see what I was able to form. My message is simple don’t be afraid to step out of the ordinary to get you where you belong. It may seem uncomfortable but, eventually you will realize it was worth it. I personally myself had to realize what it took and now, I am happy to not look back. Let me know if you are able to resonate with this poem. Thank you again.
