Along a Lonely Road
Sometimes on a lonely road we're set
Glancing side to side, no companion this time
Blank emptiness behind, vague gray stretches ahead
No choice but to begin, stepping solitarily down
Once on this lonely road, out of the woodwork comes
The makers of character which test inner strength
From the depths of despair to momentary bliss
All work deftly to write the story of the heart
Sometimes the sure step falters and slows
Suddenly not sure about wanting to know
Just exactly where this road finally goes
A plea for an end to appear, a release
A soft whisper floats in gently to remind
They once too walked this lonely road
Which helped find the way inside themselves
A journey once started, never truly stops
While still wary of what lines this road ahead
Disheartened spirit gently lifted by a vision
The walk along this lonely road only makes
Fulfillment at the end of the journey sweeter
