No Caption: A Lame Attempt at Nailing a Flow of Thoughts

***
<center>
Will you walk with me
Down that road of endless uncertainties?</center>

<center>
I am not sure the path will be lined with gold,
I'm not going to promise you it will.
Neither can I assure there won't ever be days when it'll only make sense to cry.
But I'll love you all the days of my life;
I'll be your best friend beyond when you're old.
I will be the wedge to break your fall, and the ladder for your ascend.</center>

<center>
I swear I've learnt a lot:
I have tilled the earth and have turned dry pellets to mushy calories.
I've tedded to life, I've nurtured and watched things grow.
I can do same for your dreams, your desires, and our seeds.
Life has taught me this much.</center>

<center>
That's enough for us to build on.
That is a deep foundation for the life we can build.
Let me love you. Let me build a home for us, with you.</center>

***

***Additional Note:** I came here to unsettle you with some very ~~disturbing~~ beautiful close up pictures of a python when I saw the above in my draft. Must have been there for at least 3 months (the last time I attempted to write a post with my mobile) and I never quite had the confidence to share it. First, I don't feel it's great. Second, I think it's too personal. But today I decided, why not? 🙂 Now that's out of the way, let's go see some [snake](https://steemit.com/photography/@misterakpan/original-photos-up-close-and-personal-with-a-python)* 🐍

Think what you want about it, son, but I want to send this to a certain girl right NOW, cause it's so good. Only I already know that girl wouldn't want to get it from me. 

Till the soil. Pray something grows.

Hahaha. Oh Pop! You are the man! Heads up, I already sent it to some girl, and she didn't get it from me. Must be a genealogical curse, I suppose 😂

I'm happy you love it. Thank you for the continued support ♥️

Nah, you won't have the family curse. You're too good looking for that. She was just blind.

I came back still thinking about this poem. Because today I remembered this old country song it reminded me of.

Woah! This was real good. It's always nice to meet another fellow poet in here, though my writing is more on the darker side :P
