The sun beats down Upon my body, As I walk the way Less travelled. All around is darkness where There is sunshine. The wind whispers a thousand Memories into my ear. Voices of things long gone, Sounds from other worlds now so distant. Looking behind me, I can still faintly Hear the voices of the confused and the Dazed, as they enter into a limbo Between comfort and "Hell". Their shapes and forms are blurred by The awful heat of the sun. Never in all my wildest dreams, Did I see this as being what would greet my eyes upon Reaching this place. The sounds continue. I hear the friends, the enemies, and the Unkept Promises. But still, I continue onward, Toward distant dreams, and distant Glory. All this reachable only by this Single, lonely Desert Road. |

Doesn't sound like the place met your expectations at all. Still good poem out of it. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |
