The Boy who Traveled Half-way Around the WorldA Poem by Memory'sEdgejust another memory... of me, or someone I know, you'll never find out unless you know me... but for now... It's just a story.... about a BoyLemme share a story about a boy who traveled across the world on a quest to find...
he sat alone in his dark house peering out the window to the people outside
he wanted to be with those outside but everytime he tried he was shoved back inside
he then realized the only way to leave the dark confies of his lonely home was to wrap himself in lies
Become someone he's not...
Wrapped in a cloak and bearing a mask he stepped outside and began to look
he searched the world for a place he belonged... loving and overflowing smiles... and finally someone to love...
the first world he had stumbled upon was one of extreme wonder and one of ever-expanding warmth
the people there took him in and seemed to care they had the brightest faces with different laughs and races
a place he belonged...
the next place he found was filled with many diciples to an ancient skill one that bore, endless smiles
little did he actually know that the art he practiced would change him forever
it grabbed a hold upon his heart and changed it and twisted it but people started smiling...
overflowing smiles...
the final world he had traveled to was half-way around the world still wrapped in his cloak
he had found her the girl that he loved she was locked away tight in her beautiful house
they became close through the walls and his mask they shared many laughs... and many tears...
someone to love...
He stood smiling at her door, a world wide away from his own and he beckoned to her to come out of her house for the final time
but this time she actually answered his call she poked her radiant head and looked at him, her voice stern
"You're not welcome You should go home You need to leave You're not welcome here...
"I don't know you..."
his cloaked ripped up his mask was shattered he was being pulled back home after he had come so far
he reached for her the one he loved but she shut her door to him and locked it up tight...
he was thrown hard to the floor of his dark and lonely house crying and regected
he had a hole he felt in his chest he lay there bleeding after going half-way around the world...
He was still alone...
