INTO THE UNKNOWN

Just as a story goes to the next chapter,
How will I proceed in life, I wonder?
If I could turn the page to the final chapter,
I would know all the answers.

Walking along the path of uncertainty,
I chose to stand and face reality.
Defying the pressure towards social propriety,
Against the raging storm, I chase my liberty.

Unsure of how my story will unfold,
Amidst the unknown, lo and behold!
If the future remains untold,
I will embrace my journey, and a tale will be told.
