The Paved Road

Where am I? That’s a stupid question, but I really don’t know where I am. It’s been so long since I walked on the paved road. I don’t know which way to go, to get back on it now. I’m hungry.

I don’t think I have much time left. I’ve been off the path for a while now. I miss the milk and honey. I miss the open space and the sunlight. I miss walking freely. I’m thirsty.

I have to make a decision now. I can’t stand her stagnant. I already wasted too much time mulling it over. I’m off the road NOW ; I have to make a decision of what to do NEXT while I survive NOW . Do I go search for the road now or do I accept my new life in the forest?
