The Long Road


not a soul in sight
only an occasional tumbleweed
rolled by, the bushes trembled
this is the long road
the one that we ultimately travel alone
the companions fall away into their own mysteries
the landscape erodes and the circle of
day and night stops when
our eyes stop seeing, we hope in
the end that someone lovingly
closes our eyelids for us.
