Carole Duet Poet Couplet

Lonely Wanderer

Lonely wanderer wandering through the night
searching for something or someone to hold tight.

Hoping to find a reason to remain,
something to sustain.

Stopping briefly in a dark place
where he sees only one face.

The face of innocence encircled by a halo
smiling and waving, so hard to let go.

Wondering now why it had to be
the only way to be free.
