I came to this, the path is split.
Which way should I go?
Caught here taking all the hits,
If only the medallion would glow!

It led me to all of this,
The paths confuse me so.
I'm stuck! I though I knew the path,
but which way should I go?

One leads to treasure - gems and gold!
The other to my heart.
Oh, why must I face this fork in the road?
It's just like creating art!

You must decide what to show,
What you want the most.
You then must do the deed and show it.
It's easier as a ghost!

But what to do? Where to go?
What path shall I choose?
If I choose the path to my heart,
What is there to lose?

What is life without poetry and adventure?
"Little sister" is just another way of saying "Guardian Angel"!

its a change of tears
the choices we make
and yet, when decisions
seem perfectly balanced
on scales of second guesses
that is when conscience speaks
and takes a lifetime
for the soul to understand its language.

I think the right choice is the heart...
but only if the heart speaks truth and
love...

Such choices are difficult....and they
do become a part of who we are...

Nicely done,  with wisdom...

Always knew Mages tended to ponder,
It’s nice to see such good poetry in the pondering

Ah, yes, that proverbial fork in the road.
Which branch should I choose?

If you still yourself and really listen with your soul, you'll know which path to follow.

This was very well done.

I figure since I ponder magic, why not practice one of the easiest and most effective forms? The other two are music and the heart. All three can be classed as white magic depending on their purposes and messages.
