"Reflection"  1 - 3 - 03



strolling down a beaten path

things that have come to pass

memories that incite wrath

weigh you down with due mass



it seems the clock will never toll

for the ones who stroll the road

never a drug to ease the souls

no place to call their humble abode



pain drives them through life

whips of fury, unhealing scars

perpetuating the tortuous strife

no control, held back by bars



tears roll down wrinkled cheeks

muffled weeps and moans escape

feel you lived a life of meek

as you blame, yourself, you hate



things could have been more

maybe even a little fun

you knew life had in store,

a life that contained none



drifting in thought

hollow regret

Death has caught,

the end met...

Author's Notes/Comments: 

a verse that i couldn't make work..

no one steers the locomotive
fueled by the hurt and pain
curing the pain is their motive
so they wish to not remain
