Forsaken

She walks alone-a pitiful sight
Skin scarred and face bleak
A long road stretches ahead
no destination-without a cause

But still, she walks and walks
Feet bleeding
Mouth dry
She walks a mile and then another
and yet another
Road and sky meet
orange light sits in between

Lightening strikes and thunder roars
Fear is the keeper of her nights
She treads on
Solitude embracing
She walks lifeless
and her soul follows

Rain pours and the wind blows
and suddenly-without notice
A silhouette appears in the midst
She wipes her eyes and stare again

It disappears in the storm
She hesitates for a moment
and the walk continues

Lightening strikes-thunder roars-rain falls
She walks alone
and her soul follows
