the beaten path
im confused and alone on a beaten path.
my feet as cold as the path i walk on.
my head down and my hair blowing with the wind.
i wear loose clothes to hide my scars as they flick thru the wind.
my heart a angry cracked and confused thing.
i lift my head and my eyes meet nothing but burned grass and smoldering trees.
im alone...
alone but for the path i walk apon.
no sound but my feet hitting the path i walk.
tears fall from my eyes.
"why must i bear this pain alone?!"
"im tired...oh so tired.."
i walk along the path wondering what i should do.
years pass and im so very tired...
me eyes that were once blue green are now grey and lost.
my bones way heavy on my body and soul.
i finally collapse under the force of my soul.
"thank you...finally i can rest...im sorry i didnt make it..."
i slowly wither away in the wind
nothing but my voice caryed in the wind.
"free at last...."
