--Dream Path--

I thought in time, it would become easy,
To see you walk by every day.
In truth, I’m not sure whether time did a thing.
I think…instead of healing me,
It’s made me doubt.
Doubt my purpose,
My life.

I wish I'd dream.
Hell, I wish I had nightmares.
Something. Anything.
But all I see is darkness.
As if I was forever to live my life, In darkness.

Everyone has a path to take.
But me? There’s no path for me.
I lie in the shadows,
Emotionless. Dead. Waiting.

I’ll help the occasional lost person.
Help them find their way back.
Back to whichever path they strayed from.
And then, I slip back into the shadows.
Not before long, I am but a distant memory.
Nothing more than some guy…
Who’s emotionless, dead and waiting,

….Alone.
