It is messy, too messy a fight
The process of getting from wrong to right
The ruination of what is, for the inception of something better
And even then it is a game of trial and error
More demolitions after more creations until you get it right
Made more difficult by not even knowing what right looks like in daylight
Until we realize that we haven’t, we think we have got it right this time
Until it turns to dust, it feels good, buoyant, even sublime
The worst of it all is the erosion of faith with every lost fight
But we fight, sometimes it is easier to stay down for the night
But we stand up after every fall and keep walking to find that right
Because we only really lose and have our final fall when we let go of the rope
Till the time we have hope, there is hope.

I am very glad I get to answer this question. I have chosen this picture for the post because for me the road in the picture represents the change and journey one has to go through and with the mountains and clouds in far end it represents the anticipation of finally reaching the destination, finding what you are looking for and hope that you are going to make it.
