A Walk to Nowhere

By: Amy Donnelly


I walk along the street of life.
A walk to nowhere,
Stride by stride

I walk along the street at night.
A walk to nowhere
All my life

A walk alone
It seems so wrong
To walk along these roads alone

I see the turns,
The road may take,
The road ahead,
Too long a wait

The gravel terrain,
Beneath my feet,
I must wear shoes
Along this deserted street.

I feel the time pass
Though no tick of a clock
In the road of life,
That was forgot

I feel ahead
My hands numb,
But I must feel for danger
While I walk alone

Days past,
Maybe years,
But the walk ahead
Is still not clear.
