Lonesome road

 Here I go
Out on the range again
The sunshine blinds my sight
My dreams float out of my head
Sun in the sky
Blinding my brown eyes
And I really do not care
For the world
I walk on my own, I stare
Down that path down there
That leads my lonesome road
Perhaps it's those whom I've lost
Perhaps it's the issues within
Perhaps it's my inner thoughts
That tell me they'll leave in the end
I'm at peace, truly
When I'm on my own
But even then
Even people like me
Need their friends
Yet here I walk
A lonesome road
By my lonesome
Leading, headstrong
A darkened sky
The sunlight evades my eyes
It knows I'll see through
All of its lies
Yet here I stand
Staring at the open seas
A stranded, stoic man
Torn at the seams
A smile, I find across my face
A slash has once cut through my faith
Whatever I had once believed in
Has been since then erased
A darkness, but no void
The voice drowned, destroyed
Refusing to speak up
Refusing to wake up
Asleep until we die
Only awake so we don't die
Simple bodily functions
Been so long since our last cry
And yet here I am
Here I stand
Here I go
Out to the range, yet again
No sunshine to show me the road
I prefer it that way
Let my feet take me wherever
I'll wander till the ends of the earth
Maybe I'll stay there forever
Who truly knows at this stage
So to the lonesome path
The lonesome road
I go
I've been shown my wrath
That which I loathe
Afloat
Like a boat
Suspended in motion
Going wherever the seas take him
Seeking closure
Closure he'll never find
The reasons he was left behind
Blind to those around him
Missing those who are not there
I truly am afraid
But I'll one day get there
I promise myself
I'll one day get there
