What leads to the road ahead?

by Italian Stallion   Oct 27, 2005


I asked myself as I went to bed
What leads to the road ahead?
I thought all night long
Even listened to a few songs

Days came
Days went
So I thought I better get some sleep
While I was a sleep I had a dream
It gave me a major leap
With this question that lingered in my head

I thought all night
Even listened to a few songs
Then it came to me
There is no answer

I was up for weeks
Lost lots of sleep
But in the end
I knew the answer to the question that lingered in my head

    Overall I'm really sorry but I wasn't too keen, I felt that compared to some of your toehr poems that this one did not flow as well and that on oocasion a bit more attention should have been paid to the rhythm. However saying that, I absolutely loved;
    Days came
    Days went;
    I thought that the simplicity of that phrase really encapsulated the fact that you can't control time (this was a theme that I read in the poem, which you may not have intended) and they also kept the poem moving really well. I don't know why but that really moved me!
    much love x

    The last line ran a bit long and you could fix up that no answer stanza. But other than that it was sweet, cute, and to the point. I really did like it. The title was what caught my attention and your poem kept that attention til the last line. So be proud because I do have a short attention span lol.

    Hey joe =) what's up buddy ol' pal? in the chatroom you 'discretely' asked people to read your poems...so i decided that i would becuase i don't really have anything else to do lol...

    i like this poem a lot....i've done the same thing, lay in bed for hours listening to music, and wondering what life will bring and what lies ahead....and all that junk....it's some confusing stuff, huh? lol..

    well, keep up the good work....i've never really read any of your poems before, but i like this one....=) *hugs* i'll talk to you later....
