MEMORIES

I TRAVELED DOWN THAT ROAD

I traveled down that road

in the brightness of gold,

I held the fear

I truly dreaded to hear

I was flooded in teared

in all those years.

I let my pen flow

in what my poor heart bled

when my beloved son, I hear was dead

I almost lost my head

I felt I was ready for the grave

because I was going insane.

I have seen many things on that hot summer day

but nothing like this where my beloved was laid

to rest in that summers raise

Oh, how my heart felt the blaze

on that painful day.
