Long Walks

I've shared views with those who do not understand|

Stated my opinions to those who care not what I think|

Exceeded my head with rambling voices|

They came to me for advice|

Though they did not heed the noise|

Gave me suggestions though they did not heed my choice|

Still I speak|

If only they cared enough to give a minute of their time|

Perhaps wishful thinking might guide one toward my plans|

I've gone through stages of plights|

Weathered the fight|

Isolation became my dearest friend through the longest walks|
