My Anthology

Stranger

Deep in the darkness of night a stranger walked
On a road long gone and long used alone he walked

Thousands had walked before and thousands would walk after him
In that darkness full of ignorance and lost

There was an end to each and every road they knew
But where it was no one could say

They walked on and on
One step in from of the other until the end

But once the road was not like this
Once it was not dark

There was light on the road once
Which lit the start till the end

There was a moment like this in each and everyone's walk
They could see the road they walked on they could see the path they took

They knew their duty their aim
For what they were given life

They knew the purpose of life
They knew it's reason

Until one day lost in their bliss, their sorrow, their joy and a lot
Life became a stranger to them and they were lost

And make no mistake
This story is not of one
But of all...
