The long way round

My ending is already set. It stands right before me. My GPS tells me I'm here; just one step away. But no, I have to keep reminding myself that when my thoughts are at their darkest, I must turn away and ignore the constant recalibrations that lead me back to this same spot, this one destination. I have to keep reminding myself to turn away and forge a new path that will take me further and deeper, the long way 'round.
