OURS IS ...
A GRAVELED road winds
softly towards the horizon,
COLORLESS to most who have taken it,
it calls to me.
I walk it alone,
willing to PARTICIPATE in its beauty.
This is a TAPESTRY
that I paint in my CRUMPLED mind,
As I leave the GHETTO of the past,
I spread the ASHES of my fallen dreams,
allowing a new dawn to come
WINDWARD into my wanting soul.
We have a MUTUAL belonging,
this road and I.
I am whole again.
As the past lies in waste,
I feel it SCRUNCH beneath my feet.
