The Empty Road

 

He stands alone,
On an empty road,
No cars zooming by,
No cars that slowed


He walks forward,
Not knowing what to do,
When a car will come,
He has no clue


His thumb is held high,
Yet his head in not,
Staring at the ground,
His mind in a knot


He glances back,
To his bike with a flat,
Nothing he can do,
To fix even that


He sees a car,
And his hopes do arise,
It soon disappears,
A trick of his eyes?


He keeps walking,
All hope shattered,
Like beads off a necklace,
Having been scattered


He thinks to himself,
But no ideas come to mind,
Nothing in his head,
He’s able to find


The sun goes down,
Day turning to night,
Now everything is dark,
Not an ounce of light


He stops and sits,
Not wanting to fall,
On the ground,
He would sprawl


So now he decides,
To close his eyes,
To go to sleep,
Is what he tries


It does not work,
He is still awake,
His back hurts,
And his neck does ache


So he gets up,
And starts to walk,
To himself,
He does talk


“Why does this,
Have to happen to me?”
And to cool down,
He counts to three


As he does,
He hears a sound,
A horn in the distance,
And he turns around


He sees a car,
It’s head light glaring,
The noise of a horn,
As it is blaring


He raises his hand,
As well as his head,
And to him,
The car sped


Then the car slows,
And comes to a stop,
The front door opens,
And in does he hop
