Beauty

How many times have we 
traveled down a road 
merely out of curiosity, 
and as we move down it 
something there takes us by surprise. 
Something insignificant 
somehow catches our eye. 
We stop and stare 
at the beauty consummated there. 
A beauty that fills our heart 
with the passion we identify as love. 
We are confused not knowing what to do. 
Before us lies, our future 
if we make the right approach 
or our downfall if we turn away. 
Do we stride forward 
or do we hesitate and take care. 
The decision is only ours 
in what we should do.
