The Journey















The days of glory gone past
Or are they truly yet to arrive
Running past the unknown crowd
Few faces familiar to the falling lids
Clasping the arms of a stranger
I brushed past another lot

The shadows close by
Trying to hide their existence
Reality of birth intermingled with fear
I shed light on my path
Ample sheath of pain and tears
Drowning away the agony of the future

I chose to stay ahead of the lover and the priest
The unknown territory my carved out niche
Rum mingled with fear, I drink it all
Brush past the daily trials with faith and nudging dread
The love of journey and craze of the destination
Keeps my adrenalin at an all time high
