THE LONELY MILE...

THE LONELY MILE...

As I walked the lonely mile
My salty mask crossed the human line
Resistance is fear
My mind battled itself
Put my hurt, my pain, upon a shelf
'tis foolish to fear those ties to the spiritual
And so, as I walked the lonely mile
The shadows whispered again
Resistance is fear
And the Gods themselves
Shone the light that burns incessantly,
That ultimate knowing
The truth that bleeds into the soul
Of you and me
It makes us the same
Of the same time and space
When I resemble the me to thee
How sweet and fair
The scheme seems to me...
-------------------------------------------
As I walk the lonely mile
My salty mask crossed the human line
I find myself in all that I see
And I smile to myself
Knowingly....

Hey, "T"...
If we share something in common with a specific group of individuals—like those who write poetry, for example—then we are never truly alone.
We share in our misery, rejoice in our happiness, and seek, or send, condolences for those whom we have loved, lost and have regrettably gone on before us.
So, again, we're never truly alone.
And misery certainly does love company, my talented friend.
Great write!

My Dear Tony,

The journey of a thousand miles
Starts with the very first step
But to walk the mile path of loneliness
No Human is adept

.
If we are able find the finish line
Cross over to the other side
The arduous trek was worth it
And all the tears we cried

Peace, Love, and Roger Bannister,
Larry xxx
