A Walk On The Darkside

I’m walking in darkness
In shadows strong and wide
Of streets left unnamed
And of lights left unchecked

I walk with the winds cold and unharnessed
I walk with the face wet but no tears
I walk with a mind that glowed like the dawn
Yet I walk with a heart light but no joy

So subtle I chew on facts of my life
As the nameless road roared in the distance
Carrying old news of cars aplenty
And of noises of drivers alack of sympathy

So this is me and me again
Travelling this path I’ve walked on before
Through darkness and light, in mirth and in mourn
The one who is lost and kept on losing...

I’m walking in darkness, and I’ll keep on walking
Through strife and fire and hate and tears
Though roads may end and life may vanish
My will, my spirit shall wander on

For the land where the sun no longer shines
For a friend whose heart still smiles for me
