Long lonely road

Poetry

Picture by Lucas Dross from pexels

The long, lonely road stretches on,

No end or beginning in sight,

Emptiness and darkness surround me,

An abyss I cannot fight.

The flicker of stars in the sky,

Promise of hope in the night,

Fading like a forgotten dream,

Dissolving into the light.

The winds blow prophetic warnings,

And whisper secrets in my ear,

Of an unknowable destiny,

A future that I cannot hear.

The darkness taunts me onward

Through my distant, foggy flight,

Lifting my sorrows to heaven,

To roam this endless night.
