When shall I foot it?
In the silence of the morning
Witnessing the night slur into dawn
Anticipating the sound of the hollow winds arise
Where trees flank the way in the same direction
The broken dreams scattered by the side of the road
Shall not commemorate my achievements opposed 2 my failures
Regret shall be the footprint that I leave behind
Only for those who know how to read the trail
Shall be able 2 follow in my footsteps momentarily
Nevertheless I still watch for slim pickings
I smile at the sight of slim birds that move swift by the flap of their wing
That go where the wind and thunder conversate
And clouds that unleash missile shaped raindrops onto the earth
For which I am grateful
Now the dust of the travelled road is awash with the rain
In due time you will no longer be able 2 remember my name...
