Beside the road...

I try to live
by the rules
but I am
by the roadside

I wait
for a boost
for a lift

some say
I am by
the road
by choice

but someone has come
to help
and I am
once again on the road

not alone
we travel
down the road
we choose

our destination
unknown

if it's the journey
and the company
then I am
consider
myself
lucky
