Reality of a Journey

It was to be so easy to start, seemed it was all downhill The top of the mountain is open to the desert and the dirt Where large sun bronzed boulders, are frozen in eternal rest Since the beginning of time, from the ache and the hurt Finding my way to the bottom went by so very slow and still And silent is the night when you stand alone on a hill All thru the cracks, lost trails that all end, but not the test Leaving my soul with a hole, inside so large, it will never rest I walked alone and always will be, down onto the world The ending to the reality of a journey can be a hard one to sell Out looking for a lost love or the child inside of you still You can change a lot caught in between heaven and hell Into the deep valleys even hardened rocks have been scarred What Mother Nature can throw at you, can be very hard And not a soft gentle kiss to get you to grow and be strong But a hard push into the ground to know where you belong I wish I could just go back to the beginning and go back uphill But when I try, I find it is a hard as they say, and I know one thing As I Come to the cracks, lost trails that all end, to find I never will Be where I shone in the sun like bronze and I was the king
