“DOWN THE ROAD”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
Been walking for a time,
nowhere special, today…
Just anywhere I guess,
wanting to leave, go away…

Been great while it lasted,
now the pain is too much…
My being hurts deeply,
perhaps needing a retouch…

So I’m going to be going,
somewhere down the road…
It’s a shame it happened,
for it was only borrowed…

I can relate. Sometimes I just want to leave. Just go without knowing where I'm going..because I just can't stay..It's that hurt and uneasy feeling in your heart.

(big hugggssssss) Oh Bill, you sound so sad in these words, I hope everything is alright, for down the road there will always be a sun to embrace and stars to look upon and rainbows to chase of dreams and hopes! (sigh) We all love you so much, sweet friend, my heart goes out to you! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Bill, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Bill, many truths are sad.   Happiness is a borrowed luxury that has to be given back when we are enjoying it the most, it appears.
Felt the lines deeply that you wrote.

Bill - I think we all like to get away for little while after we are hurt by someone or something.  It is shame we can't feel good all the time.  Very good write.

Wow very very heartfelt Bill, for some reason, when I am very upset, that is what I do. Go out the door and walk and think and walk and think...It does help, and oh well, God walks with me, and I love the outdoors so much..much feeling here. floria

Bill,
This is so sad. I think we all get like this from time to time.Know if you need anything I'm here for you.You have always lifted my spirits when I was down and I would gladly return the favor.

Step through the
barrier of my mind,
enter my soul,
feel my desire,
let my eyes guide you
into the shadows
