The Sheep Herder
Life follows you
No matter how far
You go
Life will tip toe
Behind you
If you venture to the
Deepest ocean or
A mountain painted with clouds
Life has no limits
Life has no fear or doubt
Life is life and life only
Life will travel in your
Most secret diary notes
Your darkest secrets
Your highest joys
Life sleeps beside you
As you cry in bed
With a loneliness that
Gnaws at your guts
Making your teeth chatter
Life is not bound by
Rusted iron shackles
Life has no death sentence
Life is free and
Enslaved and always wanting
More and more like
We are
Life follows you
No matter how fast
You may run from it
Life watches with two
Yellow beating eyes
Watches from inside your
Bedroom closet filled with
***** underwear
From underneath the bed
Life watches with a smile and
A hollow frown
We view our one life as
Life watches
All
Of
Ours
