endless searching
Rocky Road
Step by step I take to see the skies,
Not understanding what my goal is,
Seeking, digging, searching for something more than all I have,
With pain I turn my head around,
Fearing, crying, sobbing to see myself where I once was,
Step by step I take in this deep fog,
It's better now, but the shadow of the past decides to follow,
Causing hell in mind and heart,
Who or what could help me now?
Step by step I take, to see a light,
Grabbing on to it for every second,
With hope that flames of hell will stop,
and an empty heart of mine one day will be enlightened,
but until that day, I deserve this suffer as a payment for my past.
Tomorrow will be better!
Roads
love in many words
a boy and girl
a time of sweet temptation
and roads that bend and swirl
far into the future
up into the sky
the visions climb so quickly
isnt that how it goes?
a heart that glows until it burns out swiftly
as the path extends forever
into the mountains, the creek does wind
pavement hungers to be
as the layer of rock that binds
but it's just a temporary fixture
it only goes so far
extending to the edges
of the woods, the peaks, into the clouds
that hold all of our false pledges
the trees that feel us climb
never intervening when we fall
letting unfortunate souls linger
until we've lost it all
and end up wandering by the river
calling out to strangers without names
that let us pass time
and never hold us to our intentions
while we cry and seek to rhyme
the words we don't know we're saying
the past becomes our savior
a place where the road seemed clearer
the great escape
remembering in ways that make the best seem nearer
overshadowing what we're missing
endless until the end
left smiling from a distance
too far away to feel the pain
too tired for resistance
left in forests of forever
