When a move in a different direction is the only way to go.

How does one define
to almost everyone
a change of heart?

How does one explain
the faltering steps taken
on a perfect path?

How does one declare
an inherent right to prefer
one’s destination?

No longer can deny
this lifelong journey — I,
must make a detour.

    Been there. Good expression of the pressure felt from others to explain yourself in a choice where the reasoning is not apparent to onlookers.
