The lights smiled as the road stretched for millennia I refuse to entertain them, to persist forever. However it tells me different, that I must go To where I am needed most, I follow The crumbling walls, betraying its host It has been long since I journeyed this way. Footprints, of some kind, lined the path; Whatever it was that made the mark Might it have searched for meaning deeply? But in the end it began to fade, and I heard The tall nettles, scratching the mighty concrete; Blue-crested Swallows too joined in on the harmony So Discordant and so Soothing, for a fleeting moment, but There was no respite given as the moon watched me stumble; Her eyes pits of nihil, devoid of hope, yet mesmerizing. There is no telling when I can return to my happiness; Why Must I be so lonely, in this plane of mild? The isolation appears stronger, I am afraid That I may grow insane with the wild.
