Left Turn

Today I took a left turn
in an attempt to find a new horizon.

Though lifted as I am on
new possibilities and chances,
I realized that there
really aren't any quick fixes.

Dreams are to be planned
and quantified monetarily
to make it real.

So I cruise this new street
off to new uncertainties...

Detour

Nowhere to go
Nowhere to hide
Nowhere to scream my angst inside
Pressure here, pressure there
Stress is steaming in the air
I close my eyes
I shut the noise outside
