Journey

JOURNEY MANY MILES ALONG WITH MANY FEET. WALKED TO LONG TO BE FACED WITH DEFEAT. I KEEP GOING NO MATTER HOW HARD THE PATH WAY. MY GOAL IS CLOSER WITH EVERY STEP I TAKE. THE HILLS ARE LONG AND SOMETIMES HARD YOU SEE. ITS A TEST OF STRENGTH HAVING NO ONE HERE WITH ME. ITS SO EASY TO STOP OR QUIT. BUT THATS THE WRONG WAY I MUST ADMIT. I MUST TAKE THIS JOURNEY TO FIND OUT WHERE I BEGIN. MAYBE TO FIND MY LOST SELF AT THE THE END. THE JOURNEY GETTING SHORTER I CAN SLMOST SEE MY GOAL. IM SO TIRED ITS BEEN QUITE A TOLL. IM SO EXHAUSTED DO NOT KNOW IF I CAN GO ON. TELL MYSELF YOU CAN DO IT LOOK HOW FAR YOU HAVE GONE. FINALLY IM HERE WITH SWEAT ON MY BROW. I CANT BELIEVE I MADE ITS CAN NOT SEE HOW. KIND OF DISSAPOINTED AT THE END CAUSE DID NOT LIKE WHAT I SEE. THE ONLY THING WAITING THERE WAS A MIRROR LOOKING BACK AT ME. WALKED SO LONG LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO FIND. HOW STUPID WAS I FOR WALKING BLIND. NOW WITH EYES OPEN MY JOURNEY IS EASIER TO FOLLOW. I FEEL MUCH BETTERR KNOWING THE TRUTH EVEN IF HARD TO SWALLOW.

Stopping by to say hello and let you I enjoyed reading your poetry today John. I am in the process of packing up to move in a couple weeks so not much time for one on one. I will be stopping by when I can. Have a wonderful weekend and keep your pen flowing. Love and blessings, Carol
