Why Destiny?

Confusion overwhelms reason
Divergent paths equally right
Each foreshadowing a change of season
A shadowed heart given new sight

A light of love guides you forward
But each step you take is your own
Not always aware what you're moving toward
Praying you will be guided and shown

Some paths fade and disappear
Beginnings lost by fate's elation
Others shine resplendent and clear
The soul's joyous confirmation

But when two paths stand side by side
And you're given time to choose
How do you take the correct stride
With no signposts or clues?

And when this choice made with haste and urgency
Causes other events to ensue
Are you leading your own destiny?
Or is it leading you?
