Lonesome Road

Lonesome Road

~~~~

A lonesome road is winding

  Up around the bend

It narrows down to nowhere

  At the dusty end

A crooked fence of destiny

Along the crooked mile

Reminders of hardships

  Lined up in single file

~~

Stones of tribulation

  Littered at the side

Monuments of sorrow

  Forlorn they cannot hide

Memories of another kind

  Linger in the air

Solid tales of despair

  Set by father time

~~

This road is a busy place

  Traveled over years

Potholes of loneliness

  Sums up the fears

People fading out of sight

  Over the hill

Stories can be told

Their shadows linger still

~~

A rocky road that begins

  Just around the bend

A journey in your mind

  One that never ends

Walking straight ahead

  The visions you will find

All the dreams and memories

  Are not far behind
