Seeking the lost highway


Searching still
For his dreams
Seeking that lost Highway
Out there before him.

Waiting to lead him
To his destiny
At the end
Of the rainbow.

His thoughts
And instinctive
Rebellious ways
I miss.

I walked that lost highway, or rather highways for two lost decades. It is a lonely and sometimes treacherous and violence-inspired world, but if you survive it you come away from it with knowledge ordinary people do not have.

...rebelling for no apparent reason or just trying
to grow into...being a man...

"In order to exist, man must rebel, but rebellion
must respect the limits that it discovers in itself
- limits where minds meet, and in meeting, begin
to exist" - Albert Camus.

Your comment below led me to believe that you are just estranged, but the poem suggests that his rebellious ways ended tragically. Either way, we tend to idolize tortured souls, especially in the theater arts, where they play out dramas that match their lives.

I've always had a rebellious spirit that has often got me into trouble even to this day. However, I always backed that rebellion with a solid footing on the ground because I knew no one would bail me out, at least not in my family. They still wonder about some of my lifelong passions that don't match their rather mundane lifestyles. But they still love me like you love your grandson.

I'm sure you miss him. Unconditional love is a miracle that you have given to him.

Love ya!
