The Long Road Poem by Sylvia Chidi

The Long Road
It is insane! It is insane
I have strolled this secluded long road
So many times again and over again
Today I feel I have travelled all in vain

The Long road
Is where I trek with my hefty load!
Once in a while I meet the traveler
That is calculative and manipulative
And the road just seems to lead to nowhere

It is insane! It is insane
I am still walking hoping to regain some pace
It has snowed and it has rained on my face
And this road just seems to end up with pain

The Long road
Is yet to show me my final zip code
I have walked fast and sometimes slowed
Once in while my face glows with a vibrant flow
But I fear not for the world is forever changing
And we are all warriors at heart while on this long road
