This road of life has many twists and turns
We do not all tread upon the same road
I have searched long and hard
Only to find bits and shards


My feet worn and torn
My soul forlorn
Unsure of the direction I am to proceed
My soul tattered as it bleeds


My road is worn and full of holes
I come upon nothing but rotting souls

I have laid my heart at the feet of few
Only to have it broken and chewed

I have looked until I can no longer see
Blinded by the tears in my eyes
Constantly fed mens lies
Always to be told something is wrong with me


This trail I tread upon so cold and alone
For ever searching for my home
Cold and alone I roam

Growing weary of the darkness and shadows
I look inside of myself
Finding the light so long hidden
Pushing aside my pain and sadness
Allowing the light to shine with gladness

With clear eyes I now look around
I see another road
Upon it walks another soul
Whose life mirrors my own

Softly I call out to him
My voice carried on the wind
Standing still in this moment in time
Waiting to hear if his answer is carried on the wind

Good Morn.CCP aka Sweetheart.So true indeed.I wish to God that lessons learned along the great long road of life was not by pain & heartache.Sure I've heard the cliche' "what does not kill us will make us stronger"though it does make the acceptance of this fact any easier or lesser.Beautiful expression sweetheart.ttyl/Godspeed!Cybear;=)
