The road

Nathan V

Free verse
there are voices in my head,
they say let's go, let's go!
let's go down the road!
let's go down the road of misery
and despair!
you'll deal with it so much that eventually you won't even care!
And down this road you'll find,
the secrets locked deep in your mind.
that'll give you such a scare,
your sanity will tear!
