I Am Walking!

Published by

on

I am walking down a path

Somewhere, where I am so scared to walk,

Somewhere, where I have always dreaded to walk. 

 

I am walking down a path

To somewhere, where I don’t know the destination

To somewhere, where I don’t know what awaits. 

 

I am walking to someplace

Where? Why? How? 

I know not. I am simply walking. 

 

I am walking down somewhere,

Alone, dejected, beaten. 

Shivering, shredding, succumbing. 

 

I am walking. 

I have no ounce of energy to walk anymore. 

No iota of inspiration to walk.

 

I don’t want to walk. 

No, I don’t. 

And yet I am. 

 

I want to hold hands,

I want to lie down. 

I want to breathe.

 

And yet, I am walking. 

 

I am walking the steps of a failure

I am walking the painful steps of helplessness

I am walking to an endless space.

 

I am walking where there are tearful smiles,

Where there are hidden sores,

Where there are only painful stones.

 

I don’t know what to do. 

I want to lie down,

But all I doing is walking, walking, walking…..

 

PS: I am sorry to be away from all of you. I will be back to all your posts very soon. I will. I am just a little screwed up right now.

    I see courage in every step you take, as you keep walking. It is beautiful, keep going. But also feel the love and hold yourself in love and find those moments to rest and breathe, before you begin to walk again …

    Maybe you need different shoes?
    Sit awhile and breath and take in all that is around you. As the song goes…if you dont know where you are going, any road will do.
    I am listening…if you need to share.

    I do hope you feel better soon! Although the road you tread upon may look precarious, it may abruptly end. For all you know happiness and serenity await your arrival at the end of the road.

    hope the screwed up unscrew fast, on the brighter side so much walking is going to burn calories while you write poetry.
