A poem.

Led
up the garden path.
When all was said
and done, the mask
has been lifted.

Always wanted to start the walk.
But reality drifted
the temptation away.

Days of resistant
has burdened the mind.  Thoughts would stay
and so the want proved an existent.

A force bigger than Niagra falls-
produced a deadly sin.
A pause
between each step taken,
one look back to prove
that the thoughts were not mistaken!
