Analysis of Walking down the lane
Why do I turn back
again and again
What do I expect?
I've left something
behind
Is that what I suspect?
Or I want to see my footsteps
to pass judgement
in that respect.
Or I'm scared someone is
following me
and want to inspect.
Or is it a thought of
retreat into known zone,
away from the unknown aspect.
Or to check if opportunity
is still reachable,
wanna circumspect?
