The Road

Paul Bell

Nobody cries for yesterday
Not me, not you
Only the dead on the hill
Walk in the night
In this foolish world of lies
Where buildings mourn
And the world drowns
It was then
It was at that moment
I realised
You were maybe everything
I ever needed
To make my life complete
On this crazy journey, we call life
Every road has an ending
If you walk the distance asked
People stop and touch you for a time
Sometimes you’re grateful
Sometimes not
In the light of the house
You may see me looking in
The guy on the road
Finally realising
You were maybe everything
I ever needed.
Wishing you happiness
On that crazy journey

We call life.

    So true
    It was only that thing needed
    But while running one never realises
    For what they started
    This is a very thought provoking poetry
    Thanks for sharing dear Paul

      That journey has its ups and downs but in my life the ups far outweigh the downs. Good words Paul.
