Balancing on the gap

I stand looking at this crossroads
and I feel haunted by the alternate realities I stand between
the gap slowly widening

I can feel how my heart beats
the words she whispers to me
the things she loves
the sorrow she will have if I step too far down this road

I could choose for me, now, it would not be wrong
but could never be right

Or I could choose for more
for those sides of me that seem to reach into the future
that seem to be able to touch others
those sides I cannot call me, but that I love, that make me feel strong
those that live for more than
survival
