The Lonely Road

The Lonely Road

A Poem by Calissa Knox

The music plays,

   and I let it consume me.

 

I pour out my regret

 for the things I left behind.

 

Walking on,

through the lonely darkness.

 

Shedding tears of loss,

  but never looking back.

Very nice. Many have walked such a road and will feel the emotions. I may have tread quite a few of them. Thankfully, even sad roads lead to another place.

True that. Thanks for the review!
Never to look back nice message but very difficult to explain to this heart!

You made me think of a bittersweet goodbye. I don't know if that's what you intended but I truly felt your emotions and you resurfaced my own. Very powerful. Thank you for sharing!
