The Path of Life

We are walking down this path together. Holding hands and seem to be going in the same direction. Your smilie gleams with happiness and so does mine. We talk about everthing thing and nothing. Our hands start to slip. I look at you and you smilie begins to fade and you look away. I let go and we reach a point on the road where there is two different directions. I look and your going the other way and on that path you seem to be catching up with another girl. I start to walk after you then I see you hug her and walk with her. I call after and first no answer so half in tears I head the other way. After a long way, you finally see that I am not following you. You tell the girl to wait and you walk to my path and call for me. I force myself not to turn back. I clinch my fists and stand tall. I’m on the path more traveled and I see more just like me far ahead. To far away from the past now, no turning back on the path.
