no brochures or drink coupons

A Poem by willweb

It doesn't even matter anymore


as the day darkens and the sun


sets one more time, disappearing


beyond a distant horizon that seems


closer every time these eyes look


past the memories and in on the worries


 


where rain falls on sunny days


and winter is a forever shadow


 


Weary steps fall in slower paces,


tree lines fade as valleys swallow


what was once happiness, leaving


nothing more than photographs


in a brittle album of dreams


that never will be


 


the past becomes the future


in a mind's vision of tomorrow


 


But there is an end and it is close,


these tracks lead off to a destination


that comes with no brochures or


drink coupons, only a hand shake


and a wave and a direction


of someone else's choosing
