    Traffic Signs

    All the signs pointed right,
    we seemed to be following the same path forever
    The change never seemed like it would come
    and I was feeling closer to you than ever

    Suddenly, everything stopped and you made a left turn
    I stop moving, falling still, I turn to you
    You look me in the eyes,
    and see right through me.
    You turn left, and i turn right

    We part our ways and suddenly I realize I'm alone
    There are no footsteps following my own
    I feel as if my legs will give out, but I keep moving
    as the emptiness sets in, I keep following our little path
    hoping someday to hear footsteps beside my own again.

    I look up to find you walking towards me,
    and suddenly I'm whole again...
    But you keep walking, you don't recognize me,
    and I realize I'm not smiling anymore.

    As I walk this road, alone,
    I begin to wonder and daydream away
    Before I know it, I'm flying and hearing the wings of the one beside me
    As I look down below me, I see you and smile...

    Parting our ways gave me wings.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
