Miles to go

The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,

But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep.

                                                       ~Robert Frost

 

 

We all have miles left to go

Miles to go beyond the street

Miles to go on my own two feet

Miles to go despite my fears

Miles to go within my years

Amid the grey and gloomy skies

I find the thing that always drives

is that which everyone holds within

even in those moments thin.

The views are not all beauty-filled.

Some days the world tumbles until

a call for the darkness please to cease

is answered by our source of peace.

It's there, we all have it, that one thing

that allows our deepest soul to sing,

to breach our walls and guide us through,

to carry us and strengthen, too.

I have miles left to go

We all have miles left to go

Miles to go beyond our years
Miles to go despite our fears.
