What do you think of my poem?

The Path Unpaved I’ve walked this path alone so often, I know it’s form by heart. And now, as always, my footing’s unsure, on its unstable and rocky start.

I second-guess each step I take, for fear I’ll slip and fall, That one wrong step will lend me to, an end that ends it all.

One misplaced foot, one careless word, an avalanche begins; The tug of war of heart and mind, till one of them finally wins.

Each time I’ve walked this troubled path, It’s ended journey not together, Each time I fear that to walk it again, will tear me apart forever.

I haven’t the strength to walk it alone, nor the energy, if only I knew.. As every time I take this route, I fear it may be my last too.

I don’t know how to stop the pain, Of traveling down this road again. I’ve fought it time and over, only to start it over again.

Yet each and every day I persevere, As I steady my Unstable start: I know that only change can come From all of Passions Heart.

So if I must, I’ll rest awhile. Ignore the Siren song. Take comfort in the truth I dare Unshakably, I will try to stand eternally strong.
