Just One More

Just One More

You were angry when you dissolved your life in beer;
You were angry and roamed the roads alone.
Did you believe that you were wronged
When your world was finally gone?

Always you loved to ride the long highways,
Your mind absorbed all beauty you saw.
Your attempts to lasso your tyranny failed,
And sentenced you to a wanderer’s trail.

Away from the love for you that never died.

This is so well written and shows how sad it is when people take a path as you have described. Have a nice day :)

Sad when the ones we love can't see the beauty before them and leave to wander looking for something they will never find. A truly wonderful poem that captures the pain perfectly.
