Arduous Path

Self-deceived, frequently lead astray    
Fallacious fears, myself I betray    
     
Never to realise through observation    
Efficiently misguided amid temptation    
     
Invariably travelling an arduous path    
Routinely stalled in the aftermath    
     
Typically stubborn to abide by instruction    
Experiencing life’s awkward induction    
     
A harshness along the road I roam    
Yet carrying on until I find home    
     
Not the surest means of survival    
Although insight affords revival    
     
The journey resumes, persevere on    
Greater lessons sought, before I am gone
