Stairway To Nowhere






Exploring your future or delving in the past?
Are you climbing to the unknown,
Or safely descending to where you were?
Moving forward, or retreating backwards?
Do you know where you are going,
Where you have been,
Or where you are now?



Does each step take you into the light,
Or does darkness overwhelm you?
Do you take one step up,
Only to fall two steps back?
The further up you go,
Does it still look the same?



Each step you take, up or down,
Or each step side to side,
Or even steps around and around,
Will it lead you to understanding,
Or confuse your images of how your life has been?



Take each step as if it was your last,
Explore the past and present, and move into your future.
Are these the stairs to nowhere, 
Or are they the stairway to your destiny? 



You decide, you make the final judgment,
Take hold of your life and move forward.
Leaving the past behind by learning,
This is your future.



The stairway to nowhere,
No, the stairway to life!
