Never ending road
The road never ends
getting longer with each step
an end never promised
an end never expected
There are no turns
no curves or detours
a lonely straight path
that angels have abandoned
and devils have cursed
No scenery adorns this path
no buildings or towers
no trees or bushes
Only arid desert
and the winds that carry sand
no sanctuary will ever be found
only hard pavement
and harder rocks
When the sun rises,
they sweat and burn
when the moon holds court,
they shiver and freeze
How many people have walked this path
how many are lost on this road
and how many still walk it
everyday and night
never knowing anything else
and never seeing an end.
