Looking at the long road that lies ahead...
Stretched to it's full length, it patiently waits...

From the depth of myself, I've lost touch with...
Prisoner of words unsaid, I locked my feelings...

As soon as I'm done talking,
I notice something I never have before...

A siren sounds in the distance.
Breaking the silence of the night...

A contorted image stares back at me, reality.
From my window, images of what is and was...

Do you remember the sleepless nights?
Do you remember the hours of laughter...

You say you understand, but you really don't.
You have no idea of the pain I feel...

Bright lights flash above stores,
As we walk along the pavement...

Standing in the crowd, I stare at the stage.
Illuminated, it awaits the performers...

Most poets are driven by a force within.
An emotion they can't describe lurks inside...

Taking the anger out on the bag,
She shuts herself out from the world...

For so many years, we were the best of friends.
Always by your side, secrets shared in the night...
