Long Road

Folder: 
Personal Poems

Walking slowly,

Carefully placing each foot.

Storm clouds on the horizon,

Yet I still move slowly.

Careful of each step in life,

Never get out of line.



Lighting strikes a tree

A few years away.

Thunder rolls overhead,

As dark clouds cover the sky.

As I look back down the road,

How clear it was

How easy it was.

I only thought it had been hard.



Rain falls over me,

The icy water falling over my face,

A reminder of all the salty tears I’ve cried.

I look up, and squint through the waterfall of water,

I realize for the last few years I haven’t moved,

Haven’t changed

Its time to take that first step,

Get moving on the long road.

The road that is my life.
