Insomnia Poem #1



On a dusty, rusty path I walk

Careful not to fall between the cracks

On a lonely stony road I travel

The sun beats on my back

 

I dare not look behind me

There is so much to fear

The green pastures I have left behind

The waters I hold dear

 

On a burning, yearning street I step

The ground that burns my feet

On a maddened, hardened avenue

My cold heart slows its beat

 

I run away from everything

There is so much to hate

The pleasures, love, have now been passed

No patience, no care to wait

 

On a hopeless, pointless road we walk

On a useless, fruitless ground

Because it is our choice to walk

Or to take a the turn around
