On The Lonely Streets Of Bundanoon : Sadness

written by Poet : Doctor-Write


I walk the streets of Bundanoon and see the wild flowers bloom ,

The day is almost over and I’m staring at the moon.
 

I’m thinking of the dawn ahead and wish it would begin .

S
leeping rough is really cold and no one will ask me in .

 

Ghost like shadows they cross the street right there before my eye .

If you should step inside  my doorway there you will hear me cry .

I’m wrapped up in some newspapers I found  inside a bin .

The winters almost over now and spring will soon begin .

 

I stepped inside a sacred place and said a prayer for you .

cemeteries and silence have now replaced the love we knew ,


I placed a rose there at your grave and lay there for a while .


I walk the lonely streets here with the memory of your smile .

 

Golden sands are far away from the doorways where I sleep .


But I can hear
the waves crash down where waters run so deep  .


new horizons are just hazy lines
stretching out to me .


For a future without you here is where I have to be .

 

So I’ll keep on walking the lonely streets of Bundanoon .


Where people they seem to pass by like shadows on the moon .
