Lonely Highway - with Deliabear

Now that my shadow is fading to pale.
In the deteriorating caverns of my mind,
In a decrepit wail.
Memory's leaves fell in the autumn of my life.
Lonely roads seem lonelier.
Aching souls seem emptier.
Haunting voices are a lingering echo.
And the bone-chilling wind knows my name.
�
I think of a time, that sparks in my mind.
When nature held my tiny hand.
The wind whistled the piccolo.
In my budding spring,
How could I ever have known
That my autumn would come, and
I would grow old.

Again, you guys have a positive synergy going on. You make a great tandem. The layout of the environment, and the changes and transitions it takes in carrying one through the direction are creative. It's easy to relate to, as well, but maintains creativity, in unique originality. After going through the "autumn", then comparing it to "spring", looking back, really creates retrospect. You capture past, present, and future tense. Solid metaphors to convey the aesthetics and emotions. I'm hoping you two team up more often. Thanks for sharing!
