The Road Poem by Alandra Nicole Moreira

Walking down this road
You wonder where it ends
It seems like its been forever
When you’ve only just begun

Without anyone
You are all alone
On this road
Through the trees and light from the sun
White clouds and sky patches blue are shown

You find in the distance
A look of hope
Some expression of faith
And you get up off you feet
To find the light shining true
You do the only thing you can do
You walk on

You Walk on
Down this road again
You don’t where it goes
Where you got on
Or where you get off
But this road is the one you choose to follow
And so you walk on
Following the pull that it compels you to
When you get stuck
There is just this road no where else to go
That is how it feels
It’s all played out for you
You wonder
When you get to make your own moves
When you get to choose
Till then you walk down your own road…
Alone and strong you
Walk on

The very twist and turns
The forks that make you question you direction
And through the rain that falls
Something in the distance calls
Oh it calls on you
And you do the only thing you can do
You walk on…

Finding the voice that calls you from the other side
Is all that really counts in your mind
You want it to be over
And you want to turn back
But you’ve walked so far
To turn around on this brown ground paved black
And so to make it through
You do the only thing you can do
You Walk on…

You walk on
Down around you chose
But don’t know
And you run away just to find
The road returns to you in time
And on the other side a light shone true
So you do the only thing you can do
You walk on…

this is really a song I wrote, but i see it as poetry too
