The Adventure

all my life is an adventure,
i go from one to the next,
sometimes intentionally,
sometimes inadvertantly.

i find myself now on a new adventure,
fighting the urge to turn to the last page of the
novel,
to see the ending be it happily ever after,
or broken hearted tragedy

who would have guessed that this adventure would be to find the person i truly am.
and that finding myself would mean finding someone else

so i am taking this new adventure,
perhaps my most important, most crucial
to my happiness and well being,
and to the life i dream of having

and so i sholder my load,
and march unto the breach,
but with hope and joy,
in this worn heart of mine.
