That Trodden Path of Forever

A poem smack full of our ever so favorite and love melodrama. Enjoy. Don't massacre it, por favor.

You walk down a path so long...
Like how time ticks on by...
The sun fades to the rising moon...
You forget where you were going
To have trodden a path for so long
To forget its very purpose
Or even your own purpose...
To have forgotten everything
Where a heart stood
A gouging hole, cold it stands
Waiting for nothing...
Hearing only a lingering pulse
A sinister reminder it lays
To never leave you...
To always haunt you...
Like a phantom...
Full intent upon revenge
It is set to destroy
An eye for an eye...
Wit without
To stand at the brink of utter ruin
And watch as life ticks on by...
Forgetting all...
Knowing and seeing just shadows
Shadows of a past
You so long to forget
The moon is high now
A lonely pearl in the velvet sky
It whispers of mystery
Darkness knows naught its source
So instead it burrows
Hides away in the only place it knows
The darkness that only we know of
Our very souls are tainted by it
Our minds snared
We are enslaved to it
Forever to walk down a cold path
Forever...forever...forever...
Forever to be lost
Forever to be alone
Forever...will always be forever...

Author's Note

Total randomness, it just came to me one day. It is my work, so, yeah, I would appreciate if you didn't try and steal it...or whatever. If you want to use it (ha...) for whatever just let me know. Enjoy it, suggestions are great, slams and flames...eh...please don't go overboard. I am new here. Thank you!

Hi there and welcome... I think what stood out the most in this poetry is the rich deep details you have given as you blend words and join them in becoming a completed writing.. I liked it.. I understood it and random as it might have been.... it says alot..
