August contest cross roads
Welcome to your Cross Roads
Its up to you on how it unfolds
simple to taste, complex to face
yet i escape with out a trace
making my way through mountain trails
skins pale, breads stale, hit another rail,
will they even read my mail,
was it just a tall tale,
am i really west coast bound,
will my talents be noticed,
will i be overwhelmed by emotions,
is it real or truly fake,
possibly the biggest mistake was
not to chase the dream.
