Upon the beaten path I walked
and though I tired still I walked
upon a glittering stone I came
and I stopped in my palm It lay
upon my gaze It shone
but in my heart reach it did not
upon the beaten path it fell
and still on I walked
upon a young woman I came
her eyes, upon me, she looked
a flutter Within I felt
and in my arms I wished she lay
But upon my heavy tongue my words stopped
and upon me ceased look did she
so upon the beaten path I walked
my tears slowly following me
tired a grew of this beaten path i knew
upon my tired frame exhaustion came
and down I went to Sit
Upon my beating heart relief came
and with it a wash my memory came
Of a time where on this long road I did not walk
and upon my relaxed heart came grief
brief my rest was and up I stood
and upon my beaten path I walked
my past barely understood
upon an old well I came
Parched my throat had become
so away from my beaten path I strayed
my journey temporarily delayed
upon the water did the light shimmer beside lay a bucket
upon it I wished to drink so down the bucket want to sink
up it came with satisfactions wink
upon my lips did I drink
and upon my mind was I releaved
But upon the bottom lay a snake
Its poison within the water it slyly lay
upon the road did I go
blissful in what I did not know
upon my eyes the darkness came
sluggish my legs began to feel
and upon my mind worry came
as upon the path my body fell
Rasping came my breath labored came my air
But upon the ground i began to see
all that had been around me
upon the scenery came beauty
And upon my heart did it reach
upon the road had I stayed when all around me I could have played
upon the second when the reaper called
I cursed not the path I took
for upon the moment of my death
at last I came to my peace
upon the goal of the path did I clearly see
For without the beaten path beauty waiting in the scenery would I have missed entirely
