Back To You
My shoes are worn
cause I have walked
through every maze
in search of love.
I am a proud knight
riding lonely carousels
searching for a lady
while fighting windmills.
Dead ends always greet me
as I move in no direction.
I missed you here
nostalgic over there,
a journey never ends
when shortcuts don’t exist,
I strolled down winding roads
traveled both sides of the fork
without the use of a compass
I found out I was never lost.
Cause it doesn’t matter what road I take
when every path leads me back to you

A throwback for my newer Followers. Have a wonderful day full of sunshine and smiles.

“Every maze” ” no short cuts” those to cut me so deep wow. I love any piece that can make me feel something and this one definitely has. I hope you find what you need and that “the lonely author” becomes “the happy in love author” although that’s a bit long I’m sure you’ll figure out something better. My point remains that this is a great one
