The places you have been
Back allies
Streetside riverside
Beneath the bridge
In amongst the shadows
Where only
The strangest of creatures and creeps live
Sighs in the night
Relief
Your enemies lost your trail
And only the grim reaper in his dead flesh
Was to claim your life
Lies that led nowhere
The times when you should have cared
only left you
Like a carcass lying bare
As the new days came
You again
Hid your face and being
Snuck crawled and ran
night owls witnessing
the lonely scavenger hiding
until in the day
the chase once again began
The cat away
As the mouse you played
The lone prairie dog
That has lost its way
Upon the ground
Fugitives’ feet never rest
Lost upon the journey
yours became but a lonesome quest
fear that kept you up at night
uncertainty
unrest
lack of light
Days and nights have passed
now of you nothing remains
but lifeless flesh and bone
your soul and spirit gone
hallow riveted existence
beared all alone
your pain has overcome
all that of you left now
is an etched wretched tombstone
