Off in the distance

Off in the distance

 

 

 

As I walk this road,

some have traveled with me from time to time.

 

Most have left and asked only for my company,

while others have asked for everything or tried to steal my wears.

 

I chose to walk alone for so long,

that the thought of someone with me,

became a memory lost in the haze of time.

 

Now I see in the distance a figure,

who waits just at the edge of the horizon.

 

I slow my pace sometimes,

yet other times I run until I am short of breath.

 

I don’t know what will happen,

when I meet this stranger who waits for me.

 

But I know if I stay on this road…

they will be there,

when I reach the horizon.

Perhaps. I have to remind myself that the figure has not always waited until I get to the horizon. Maybe this time is different.
