the long road back

Folder: 
This Is My Life

a single lonely tear

on a tired face

a down trotten, broken heart

that can never be replaced

sad, slouching shoulders

heavy, dragging feet

and these weary old eyes

show signs of defeat

a person can only fight

the same battle for so long

a person can only pretend

to keep being that strong

until any will power or effort

once possessed, is gone

and a person knows it's time

to start moving on

when there's nothing left to do

and nothing left to say

she's done all she can

it's time to walk away

she's finally given up

she's finally going home

she'll have to take the long road back

and she'll have to walk it alone
