The Never-ending Path by [
chocolatemonster]
You’ve been walking down that path,
For what seems like eternity,
With nothing but that silver mare,
Keepin’ you company.
You’ve been through many-a-storm,
Braved those cold nights in the wind,
Only thing you’ve got are memories,
But they’re trying to rescind.
You stare off into the distance,
Watch that path that never ends,
Wondering if you and that silver mare,
Will ever see the light of day again.
And just when things start looking grim,
Your horse is getting wary,
You see some light from up ahead,
And that’s when things don’t seem so scary.
You know the end is coming near,
You let out a whoop of joy!
But that part of you that has no fear,
To be what you want to be,
Looks back on that never-ending path,
And stops running happily.
You know your journey’s ended,
Though a new one’s just begun,
You’ll miss those long days on that path,
Where you knew you were someone.
So you approach the end of the road,
The one you thought would never end,
And realize how much you’ll miss those days,
Where it was just you and your horse to fend.
You walk out of that forest,
With a tear clouding up your eye,
And that’s when you realize just how hard it is to say goodbye.
