Descending Upon the Winding Road
In a whirlwind of events I'm suddenly out, my feet upon worn road
It twists and winds and disappears, leading me to unknown.
Adventure took me by surprise
Took my hand
Opened my eyes
Before I knew it I was gone, far from the places I knew so long
I turn my back to return, but the horizon blocks my view
"You must continue!" Screams the wind, banshee screams into the blue.
It twists and winds and disappears, pulling me away.
I fight and struggle against my ties unwillingly 'till morning's rise
When white dawn breaks I close my eyes and think of that I left behind
But I find the sun never comes, and darkness holds sway
I must toil on; continue on, for there's no other way
"I'm lost!" I cry to anyone, but they act like they cannot see
"Where's the road that leads to home?" But no one turns to me
I'm on a road that twists and winds and disappears leading me into a darkening abyss.
The breath barley stays in my lungs as rocky mountains befall
I look atop each craggy cliff, knowing I must climb all
Where am I going? I hoarsly ask
When does the pain start slowing?
It calls my name, the wind, it does
It becons, draws, yet has no cause
Save for leaving me naked in this world of black
All I want is to go back
But no say have I on this road that twists and winds and disapears pulling me from the light.
Then suddenly when all goes dark a ray shines through the curtain
Someones guilding me, some one kind, of whom I am not certain
But I think things maybe alright
As the sun breaks and shatters night
It no longer screams, begs for me to carry on
The glowing white, soft and pristime, fills my head with song
And then, I'm aware that I lie still upon a feather bed
With hestitant thoughts I open my eyes and begin to raise my head
I'm on a pathway that rises and curves in gental slopes... back to home
Hope you liked it! My brother helped me on the fourth verse. Then my mom came over and told me it was too depressing, so I added the last verse. Oh my family... Please R&R!
