Take my hand

For just a moment

Walk with me

Along the paths of your life

Following choices made

And potentials missed

Notice how the bends and forks

Appear without request

Doorways form

After we've passed

Chance and timing and fate

Know us well, but care little

Knowing our names, but not our Self

So instinct carries us on

While certainty remains silent

If life has a mastermind

It is not control

But the becoming

Of who you are

And who you will be 

Today's poem is for the Poetry profile Versification contest, day 15. The prompt was: 'Who is the true mastermind behind it all?'
