The road was bumpy
spiked with thorns
so sharp it hurts
it caused a tired
two feet to bruise
they bleed and drained
like water's pouring rain
until the drought stopped
with hopes of plants
to sprout again
the tears slowly dripped
upon that stoic face
the salty taste of pain
that numbed an empty
heart so pale
the smile you
turned your back at
the sun that
pulled your heart
the wishes, wants, desires
the gifts you longed to have
the present of today
forever lost and gone
not ever coming back
to smile and warm
your heart
it's been a long jaded journey
unhappy, not joyful, but sad...
