A lonesome soul

Walking down

The path of eternity

 

A long journey

But not without partners

Temporary acquaintances

Providing solace to the soul

 

Eventually

Every single one leaves

Some whose paths

change at a junction

Others

Who decide to walk

A different pace than yours

Overtaking you

Crushing you

Stomping you

 

You’re left for dead

Yet

The soul transcends

The concept of mortality

For you walk again

Crushed, broken and bruised

Intimidated

At the sight of another soul

Fearful

For history repeats itself

 

Unaware of your own immortality

You fear everyday

On your eternal walk

Better late than never

I hope you realize it some day.
