The Sun beams down upon my face
Sweat boils on my forehead
One last sip of fluid
And I again move on
The path has turned rough
Skin peels back on my feet
Blood drips, leaving my mark
Glance rearward, hollow emptiness
Not a soul within sight
They’ve taken the paved path
The easy way out
I won’t
My dream life is at the end
Of all these stones and glass
A little pain
For a lot of joy
Is all worth it
Just my dream and I
Together….Alone
