To keep walking

I walk my road
I have walked long
There is a stretch of road behind me
And there’s a good stretch ahead

The road has many stops
In these stops I linger
Some stops I linger long
Some stops less

I just had a stopover
I stayed for quite a while

I liked it there
I was comfortable
I was useful
I discovered something there
Something very valuable
I gained friends there
We shared the stop together

But I was not there to linger forever
For the road goes on still
It is not with a light heart that I left

I have to walk the remainder of my own road
For it is not finished
