ive been walking for days,
weeks,
months,
alone.
one on my own on a dark dreary path.
my only compainons have been the trees,
darkness, 
and the sound of my own voice in my head, 
taunting and questioning me.
miles behind me is the life i once knew, 
full of empty smiles, happy days and broken promises;
but still full.
now i walk alone and empty,
compainonless and losing hope.
i continue to walk and come upon a shadow in the distence,
crying under and tree of rotten apples.
she looks up at me, 
and notices the glimmer of hope now in my eyes.
have i found what i am looking for?
have i found someone to walk with?
