WANDERING II
WANDERING II
S.JENSEN © 2018
IN THE NIGHT
WALKING BACK
THROUGH THE DOORS
NOTICING
THREE PATHS
ONE LEADS BACK THE
WAY I CAME
TO THE LEFT
IS FOOTPRINTS
IN A MIX OF SNOW AND DIRT
OF THE HORDE
THAT MADE THIS
PLACE SO EMPTY
TO THE RIGHT
IS FOOTPRINTS
MIXED WITH BLOOD
AND DIRTY MUD
OF THOSE THAT SURVIVED
THE BATTLE
WHICH DIRECTION TO GO
TO THE LEFT
I WILL TRACK
THEM DOWN
DYING MORE THAN LIKELY
TO AVENGE THIS MESS
TO THE RIGHT
I COULD CATCH UP
WITH THEM AND AIDE
TO HEAL
TO FIGHT ANOTHER
DAY WITH THEM
OR I COULD
GO BACK OVER
THE BROKEN LOST SPACES
TO FIND MY WAY
TO MEET UP
IN ANOTHER
SPACE AND TIMELINE
OH THAT ONE IS LONELY
AND HARD
BUT CONTINUING
WHERE WE MEET LATER
LATER ON SO MANY
YEARS LATER
ONE IS NOTHING BUT
ANGER AND AVENGING
TO DEATH TAKES HOLD
ONE IS CARRYING
ON TO HELP
AND AID
YET THIS IS THE EASY
ONE YET FRIENDS ARE
THERE
I STAND THERE
THINKING
AS THE TRAILS
ALL END AT ME
THEN AS I WAKE UP
DARKNESS LEAVES
AND I SIGH.
