NO MAN'S LAND

early evening
a walk in the gloomy twilight
of damp winter suburbia
lonely streets
devoid of life
shops are shut
lights come on in houses
scenes hidden behind closed curtains
anonymous pairs of headlights roar past
destinations unknown
doubts play on the surface of my mind
nagging negative thoughts that won't subside
so many questions
so few answers...
back home
the house is warm n full of people
but can't shake off these sad lonely winter blues...
