I walk alone

I walk Alone

In sorrow's path.

Grief becomes me.

Fear, an enemy I know, 

sometimes won, 

sometimes lost.

You gave me a sharp edge.

I am not trained to injure.

I killed it I know.

I was destined to grow.

Not black or white

a shade of grey.

I walk alone.

[Cyndy Robinson]

Thanks! Welcome, lol. At your own risk................

[highonwords]

a lone wolf, shadowing among the trees, full of sorrow - being alone could get very lonely sometimes - we are made to be interdependent with others - to connect - to relate with compassion with others

true that, but some have shadowed among the trees, to the extent that connecting with others is difficult. I do think the poem shows compassion or not, its not the focal point, but to understand is compassion in its own right.

[highonwords]

you are right, cyndy - to understand is a progeny of compassion - there is a saying, that loneliness could be addictive to the point that you don't want to deal with people, anymore

Walden.............almost there, lol

[highonwords]

*smiles* have you read 'the outermost house'? i have the book, but haven't read it yet

[Cyndy Robinson]

no havent, going to barnes and noble tommorrow, lol. Had not heard of it before now. Thank you. Maybe haven't read it yet.

[Cyndy Robinson]

not sure I will get to read it either, vociferous reader, but a lot going on here right now. Have been asked to write and participate in things, and I don't seem to be able to do it. Life is a freight train right now.

[Cyndy Robinson]

I sent you a read request, not for a review, just as a moon thing, lol. for Ghost Writer. Thought you might like it.

[highonwords]

it's all right - the book is a memoir on nature - hope you handle things well

Yeah Walden was that way to, but a point to it. I am looking forward to it.
