"Too quiet!,"
I shouted
"Too loud,"
I whispered.
I continued walking,
Sad that I hear nobody talking.
I miss hearing music
I miss hearing song
As I continued down the path too long.

I watched the moon my only light
The sky too dark,
The moon too bright.
The trees are tall
The leaves are small,
I looked around
No giggles
No laugh
I continued down the deserted path.

Colours used to blend together
I thought it would stay
Like that forever.
But nothing lasts that long
How long is forever?
You do the math
Why? You ask
Because thats how long i'll walk this path.
