Episode Synopsis


Before she began writing and singing songs, Kelsi Westfall was a poet. This poem, Which Way Will You Go, published on the net in 2013, alludes to the many challenges she faced after leaving home when she was still a teenager."sometimes the silver lining's thinbut if its there you count it as a winremember that for sometheir lining will never silver becomeeverything is perspectivewhen held in their place respectivesometimes you don't even know the gooduntil the good is goneyou climb a ladder toget to the topbut if you try to make it without oneyou won't make it at allsomething bettercan't really be soif theres not something worseto compare it toso if you're wondering howyou'll make it outremember that the light at the end is a fork in the roadwhich way will you go"In many ways, the poem is a precursor to the lyrics she writes now. This is her second session in the library. The first was recorded almost exactly a year ago.
