Sometimes

By wanderingpoet

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Sometimes the darkness pulls you in. Sometimes the night is all you can see. Sometimes when visions and attempts at peace follow your path as in a blind stupor, they fail. Fictions Friends and Trusted Strangers reach for wanderers along pitch paths Yet beyond them they stand Beyond them they rush along into the piteous void. And the one who can stop them The one who stands between them and oblivion… Turns their back And walks their way… Written March 4th, 2002 © on Mar 04 2002 06:31 AM PST   18 • 0 • 1
