Path Of Loneliness Poem by ADENUGA TITILAYO

I walked down the path of loneliness
in search for a companion

Up the hill i met Jill
who broke my heart and pulled me down the hill

In the thick woods came a girl with a red hood
who rode me home, became a wolf
and i came running back to the wood

Tired, Cold and Empty i walked down the road filled with snow
then i met a girl who looked just as white as the snow
she was too cold and i almost froze to death
and ran for life

Very close to the town hall dark in the night
i met Cindy who asked if i could be her prince charming at the ball
but she ended up running off before midnight

At the bridge i stood
tired of loneliness
and desperate to get out of its path
then i saw you at the far end of the bridge
my heart skipped and my feet leaped
as i stood right by your side
our hands twined in each other

Then i knew that i had found what i was looking for
a companion -
to walk out of the path of loneliness!
