A time or two ago
I walked along that same path
Thinking those very same thoughts.

A time or two ago
I left a few things of mine
Along that forbidden road.

A time or two ago
I departed,
Trying to find myself,
But ended up lost in the path
I traveled once before.

A time or two ago
I became broken,
Forgotten
By those who walked that same path,
Who sauntered right by me,
Withered,
Helpless,
All just a time or two ago.

I wrote this poem a few years back, and have since taken it, revised it, and brought it back to life again.
