went walking through
the shadows of my mind
Two were good friends
the third my life sign

Corridors are narrow
and the path a maze
two of us just stop
in awe of this place

My life sign
he just pushes on
for him there is no narrow
just the open rung

Windows locked and shuttered
doors all closed tight
two us were willing
and still there is a fight

A kiss upon my forehead
a squeeze of my hand
a smile even a child
could understand

My path is never set
I'll change my ways


Three of us
went walking
in the shadows
of my mind

only one returned
it was my life sign

My god, the bottle,
lay broken in the street
my life had passed before me
and died at my feet

Today I stand alone
no crutches, need I

For now
I walk alone
in the void of my mind [comments] => 3 [counter] => 303 [topic] => 31 [informant] => walt [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry ) Your Poetry Dot Com - A Walk

Three of us
went walking through
the shadows of my mind
Two were good friends
the third my life sign

Corridors are narrow
and the path a maze
two of us just stop
in awe of this place

My life sign

for him there is no narrow
just the open rung

Windows locked and shuttered
doors all closed tight
two us were willing
and still there is a fight

A kiss upon my forehead

a smile even a child

My path is never set
I'll change my ways

my life had passed before me
and died at my feet

Today I stand alone
no crutches, need I

For now
