Lyrical Confrontation

Rise to life's occasion like a child runs to his mother.

Love, Trust, Passion, Loyalty, and Friendship; there is no other.

Take a seat and listen to the lyrical confrontation.

Life's actions are an addictive and unique creation.

Follow the same path to get the same results.

Taking a different path is how I knew I became an adult.

Age 16 and all on my own.

No money, no food, not even a home.

I've been walking down the same dusty road.

It was time to find a path where a River flowed.

I had been dying from thirst for 16 years without knowing.

I walked and walked without knowing where I was going.

I came to a fork in the road when I was 17 years old.

One road was calm, and familiar, the other dark and cold.

Would I be put on the same pace as before by following the familiar path?

Or would I die from loneliness and the cold offering of its wrath?

I took the cold, dark path and ended up in a place I would have never expected.

This path had not been beaten up by the sun and the land had not been neglected.

I formed a home in my tiny cold and dark place.

I disappeared from all I knew without a thought or trace.

Day after day my path would become brighter and would fill with glee.

Before I knew it the path I had taken no longer looked like a Dead Sea.

I looked around my path, and saw an enormous Door ahead of me.

I walked to it in a hurry, as I looked around there was no more debris.

I grabbed the knob on this huge shining door;

Flung the door open and I was ready for more.

My heart and soul I was ready to deposit.

This is the day that I had realized it.

I had finally come out of the closet.

I almost named this post "The Chronicles of Lesbian" Just thought you should know. :P
