Endurance

[Nyyark]

Stumbled on my path again,

On The Path.

Again.

 

So difficult to walk

All alone ahead and behind.

A glance to the side

And I'll go blind.

For a week.

I won't speak

For I'm weak.

 

Afraid to fall,

Afraid to crawl,

Afraid to take

A step at all.

 

How is it

That can it be

When natural existence

Worships the cruel angle

And what I know

Helps him go.

 

How can I be

When all I can see

And All I know

Treading down paths leading down

Down in the ground

 

He has all my cards,

I'm the one out of suit.

Forgetting them isn't an option

And I'm too afraid to try and lose

 

I just stumbled on the path again.

I long to be in his hand.

I wish to be where my friends are

Where they all understand

 

Instead I stay and fall

Stay and fail

Sit and wail

This is my success

This is my best

And I know it will happen

If I keep goin' straight

I'll stumble on the path again

Finely wrought sadness

 

Frustration, dead wood, dull eyes

 

A right of passage

Elder than dirt, more foolish than a jester, able to trip over the smallest logic in a single step. It's... Oh, you know.

[Guest Fire Walker]

I wholeheartedly agree with Zool.

 

Wow, how many times do you hear that?

The proud...

The pyromaniacs...

Intriguing poem, the way it crosses itself feels like a path itself. I like this
