Where Was I Going?

I found myself walking

down a trail in the woods.

Moonlight spilled across my path

lighting the way.

Unsure of my destination—

but something told me I was headed

in the right direction.

I didn’t know where I was,

only that I was getting closer

to where I was going.

Darkness surrounded me,

but the moonlight

was my guide.

As I traveled alone,

my confidence grew.

With each step

I felt closer to a goal

I didn’t know I had.

Even though my journey was fraught;

an inner knowing pushed me forward.

When I finally arrived

any remaining doubt vanished.

I knew where I was

and most importantly,

I knew who I was.
