Stroll

Stroll

The paths I have trodden, decisions I have made,
roads often barely travelled, unmarked and vague, 
loves I have known, not always given nor received,
following my heart, in what I believed.

Shattered dreams and victories, have all been known,
throughout the years, the man has truly grown,
a small boy remains, upon the path, unchanged,
until nothing but a fading memory remains.
