"I’m on this journey once again.
I’ve gone this route before.
And yet, this path feels different
as I venture here once more.
Something in me seems to know
That this may be the last:
The final time I walk this road,
Soon to form my past.
It’s a journey that’s been rocky
and I’ve often lost my way:
I’ve encountered many hurdles
and diversions, you might say.
Yet, despite its many challenges,
this route has brought such joy:
Its final destination led me
to my boy and girl
.
And now I’m clinging to it:
This rocky, weathered road.
For never passing here again
seems quite a heavy load.
I’ll take my time along this path:
The one I know so well.
What gift awaits when I arrive:
