Life's Long Road

By christopher cole

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Life’s long road… In my youth my soul did die Denied love from those that mattered Tough and callous I would not cry My dreams they all were scattered When I realized I was alone My spirit hardened like a stone Into this maze I was thrown Against reality splattered For a lifetime I did travel Down dusty roads full of gravel Yet along the way I did meet Other travelers on the street With tales of love and caring Of selflessness hope and sharing They taught me all that mattered Was in giving along the way Warmth and love to brighten the day As we strode down life's long road All fear and doubt it was shattered Christopher Cole ww.thecloserssong.com Written November 27th, 2001 © on Nov 27 2001 11:26 AM PST   0 • 12
