boulevard of broken dreams

                I walk alone, I walk alone, I walk alone down an open highway. Its a two lane road with a double yellow line running between my feet. Clean, smooth, new asphalt on the on coming side, loose gravel filled with pot holes on the out going. I walk between. In walk alone. I walk alone. A wilting cornfield on left with a broken down shed far in the distance birds circle the roof. A soft wind blows causing the ripped stained curtains to flutter. To the right is a field of daisies with a blue home just adjacent to  the shed on the left. A warm glow comes from the window of the front window. I walk alone. I walk alone. The sun is always setting, the moon is always rising but neither move an inch. I walk alone. I walk alone. No cars pass no voices are heard I walk alone I walk alone. alone.

  1. I like how you used the double yellow line to show that you are stuck between two things, unable to move to one side or the other. The sun and moon part reinforced this idea for me.
