where art thou, thy future.


unnerving
how we can't predict what's approaching in our lives
what we will face or what will become of us
its like taking a step forward
without knowing what in front
like as if we are all blindfolded
its just darkness right up front
there's no support no sign
no sound nor smell that we recognise
its all so unfamiliar
we have grown up to learn
that we shouldn't go to unfamiliar places by ourselves
and yet we always do
we lead ourselves into a trap that we can't get out
and the only way is deeper into the trap
this way we find ourselves sinking
deeper and deeper into things
even when we want to withdraw
somehow it's more than difficult
and close to impossible
maybe that's why we always yearn for someone close
someone to be there
when you enter dark alleys of our lives
someone to give an advice
when we need to choose which road to undertake
but even then, we cannot tell what's ahead
even no matter how much we open our eyes
prying into the future, our future
there's nothing in that vision
just when we thought things are going in that line
it chooses to make a turn and even at that point
we don't know which turn it'll make
left, right?
or back.
