Anywhere is another beginning.

I wrote this one back in 2013. It was inspired by an Enya song entitled "Anywhere Is." 

Enjoy!

Another Beginning

I used to think we'd never part;
The thought had never crossed my mind,
But now, I find I'm at the start
And your path, I've left behind.

Among the rocks, you now wind,
But I chose the straighter course.
At first offset, I seemed to find
My chosen path to be the source

Of obstacles so great a force
That I had not strength to stand,
And soon my weary voice grew hoarse
Calling, pleading for your hand.

This was not the end I planned!
But, somehow, I stumbled on
And I found a meadowland;
Eventually, your shadow gone,

I forgot to dwell upon
All the things I wished for you.
I almost cried to see the dawn
Shimmering on the morning dew.
