Bitter cold, winter’s heart,
Life before me, where to start;

In the skies flying free,
Towering symbols of industry

Rainbow city, burning skies
Russian Rooftop, my own Demise,

Twisting streets, cobbled stone
Where I walk, I walk alone

Place of Worship, Battles Fought
Invincible Fortress, Within did rot

Golden pavilion’s golden light
Burning sands, desert’s blight

Twisting canyon, awesome find
Common Good; Death of mind

Ancient Cities, overgrown
Where I walk, I walk alone

Flying water, magic place
Deadly weapon, beautiful face

Green foliage, towering trees
Boiling froth, shinning seas

Soaring tower, Eternal plea
Shaolin masters, powerful Chi

Beautiful places, un-known
Where I walk, I walk alone

Cliff-carved temples, man’s hand wrought
People dying, all for naught

Questions answered, problems solved
Desperate peoples, un-absolved

New friends, old faces
Many people, faraway places

Here I am, fully grown,
Where I walk, I walk alone

Yellow star burning bright,
Freezing void, endless night

Endless roads, seldom traveled
Intricate web, plans unraveled

Without Pain, pridefuly fearless
Without guilt, ruthless innocence

Endless struggle, power waning;
Strength enduring, Will sustaining

Without rest, without a home,
Where I walk, I walk alone

Each line represents an important event in my life. Many of the meanings would mean nothing to anyone else. Thought I'd share anyway ;)

Elrond,
All I would change is the description of the topic:

bad poem I wrote describing my life

That's not true, it is not a bad poem, but a truthfully beautiful one.
You wrote it from your heart, what you know, what you feel, to write a poem sometime it's hard, when you have so much to say- and you do have, I know that.
That's beautiful and don't ever slight your writings, it is real, it is a part of you, and it has the greatness you have.
It simply couldn't be bad.

Yours truthfully
~Infernity

It's bad because I put no effort into making it anything other than a list in the form of a simple rhyme. ;)

It was good for me [lol] I like the idea of "Keep it Simple Smarty." I walk alone too and can empathize.

For your information Justin, I seem to use the expression of "Where I walk, I walk alone" quite a lot :) always comes up- then I remember that's your inspiration...

Yours truthfully
