The Road

M.E. Lilly
There is no road but the straight road
Which is often hard to find
The twists and turns of blind sojourns
Are the routes of troubled minds

There is no way but the right way
Which is seldom clear to know
The guile and lies of vain disguise
Are the paths of tortured souls

There is no road but the true road
Which is sometimes plain to see
The crash and burn of live and learn
Is the course that sets us free
