On the Horizon – Poetry Prompt 25

Sounds are still,

There’s no one around,

Or mayhap they’re tired of the bill?

Reaching out with soundless arms,

My eyes watch as the clouds approach.

It was almost too quiet, but real life didn’t come with background music.

I wonder often how it will all turn out.

So I must continue on without a doubt.

When you make a decision, for better or worse, it was still yours to make.

Can I withstand what will come about?

Oh, I shan’t sit with a moment of doubt!

My faith is given and trust as well,

I know that for some this is a farewell.

No, I must face this head on, and know that

Going through with my life while still at bat.
