As I step forward…?

As I Step Forward…? I Step Back Again,
Afraid to See what is Around The Next Bend.
Is There an Opening I Need to See?
Or Another Dead End Waiting for Me.
I Look Up to The Sky and I See Birds above Me,
Making Their Nests in Their Favourite Tree.
I Hear them Singing and they are Happy and Free,
And I Am hoping One Day this will be Me.
My Life is Like a Puzzle One bit Missing Never Complete,
I Try and Clear The Past from My Head,
But My Heart Always Beats.
I Know that I Am Fighting Myself,
I Am Hurting Too,
But My Brain is Like a Maze,
It is Hard and Tough to Get Through.
I Take a Deep Breath and Try Again,
Looking for a Path that will get Me to The End.
Some Places are Dark, Like The Thoughts in My Head,
Some Places are Bright, As I Think of My Future Instead.
As I Walk Down these Passages, Still Worried of What I might Find,
I See a Figure in The Distance and a Light Shining from Behind.
My Feet Start to Build up Speed, Is this what it Seems?
Or Have I just Woken Up, From a Demon in My Dreams.
