An unlit road

An unlit road

I am walking a dark road,
Armed with only my body and 
The everlasting protection of my fictitious heroes.

A silent toxic brook passes from under.
A light i see, yonder.
A silhouette in the darkness;
I see no kid in this darkness.

Straight ahead a train hoots.
Of a companion, there is no news.
Though one i could use;
For the road is boring and of only one use.

There is no cheer or amuse,
But stray dogs on the loose.
Close by, in a dark wood,
A peacock moans.

An electric station
To my right,
It has the only light
In which i can confide.

A sharp bend in this road,
After which, only darkness will be my abode.
Now, this darkness i loath.
Now, its just a heavy load.

A hopeful sight,
On the dark horizon, a dot of light.
Once I reach there, I'll have nothing to spite.
Now, i shall begin, with all my might.

But how ironic it is,
That my destination lies before the dot.
A destiny with food, lots.
An end, this journey, has got.

I wish, i can bid farewell.
But, the road was nothing but unwell.
Darkness' heaven, my hell.
Just for courtesy sake, farewell.
