path of bliss

dark clouds arise
i look back once more

no! i must leave before it is too late.
i am faint; my feet, they feel the ground no.

a strand of hair--falls across my face.
the black cat escapes across my path.

a tear trickles down my icy cheek.
i turn and walk away--
leaving this path of destruction.

::as the sun rises
just over the hill.

yes! i can almost see it.
i can bare it no more!

oh, how i mustnt get lost on this wearisome path again.
