The Road You're On Poem by Randy McClave

Don't blame others for the road that you're on
When to it you were first drawn,
You weren't forced to take that road up ahead
I truly believe that is enough said.
You saw all the signs before you got on that road
And how many times that you were also warned and told
Now you're hitting the potholes and the speed bumps
And you too are now taking the many lumps.
Nowhere on the road can you make a U-Turn
Finally you feel the worry and also the grievous concern
There is no medium or shoulder to pull over on to
As others are recklessly driving, you don't know what to do.
Now a storm is coming and the road is getting dangerously wet
Now you know getting on that road was a regret
You pray to God that in this journey you will be surviving
But, you can can't blame anyone for the road on which you are driving.
