On The Path

Aimlessly wandering down a path,
a meadow, a forest, a labyrinth of deception;
Searching, never looking.
Seeing, never finding.
Hoping, never knowing.
Broken, but never crying.
Shadows from the mist caressing,
whisper of a touch;
Holding, never feeling.
Speaking, never saying.
Listening, but never hearing.
Echo of a scream returns to me,
shattering the mist;
Lost, never found.
Lonely, never alone.
Attainable, yet enigmatic.
Hiding - always hiding - on a path,
a meadow, a forest....a dream.
