Journey
My beloved she waits for me
Amidst a thund’rous roaring sea
Ode to turmoil’s kindly soul
Whose navy waves do crest and roll
To see mine glory I do strive
In greener pastures I can thrive
Two strands are woven hand in hand
Trav’ling toward this distant land
Gold horns are calling out their cry
A desperate plea to Him on high
But I weighed down by gravity
Am marred by hopeless reality
Oh spare me, spare me from your love
The raven’s evil eats the dove
Consumed by darkness closing in
Do stay with me through thick and thin
The winds are wailing sorrow songs
To sweet birds hymns for which she longs
Oh broken branches falling fast
Moving this speed my life won’t last
Do slow me down and hold me tight
Free me from worldly terror’s fright
Unlock my cage and let me fly
Keep me close don’t let me die
Alas these miles wear me away
Dangerous wires spark and fray
Pulses jump from block to block
Hanging lonely beneath the stock
Oh prisoners barred by iron chains
Washed away by stormy rains
My trunk its bark is whittled down
No longer bears a golden crown
Her sirens lust for stony shores
A shipwrecked boat without its moors
I drift past Eden she floats on
Sailing outward toward the dawn
Will sunrise bring me happiness
Or will night’s ignorance be bliss
I truly wish for clearer sight
Oh clarity’s romantic plight
Don’t strike me down I will not fall
The clock ticks on from towers tall
My journeys pass through endless time
These tort’rous mountains I do climb
Upon my goal I set my sights
Erase this sin turn on your lights
You draw me near from places far
You guide me like the northern star
My moral compass magnet’s stuck
Can’t navigate through psychic’s luck
The fog descends on forests’ mist
Gently tapping on my right wrist
Drumming on my heart runs wild
Breaking bonds of ghosts beguiled
I watch my blood as it drips out
Constricted breath I scream and shout
Choked by warmth’s kind paradox
The rabbit’s tail chased by the fox
I yearn deception’s fateful end
Blackholes unplugged I hope to mend
A helpmate meets my true desire
Snowy nights lit up by fire
Demand the pleasure’s worth the pain
A forward loss is stagnant gain
Rulers measured by finite terms
Their dead ravaged by sand and worms
A casket’s door shuts out all hope
Does nature’s cycle mourn its trope
Laughing deeply from reason’s grave
Emotions burn new paths they pave
My passion’s knife it wields with skill
Pierces my flesh with silent shrill
She calls my name breaking my walls
Springing seasons turn to falls
Weather withers my weak restraint
Vision blurred in blacked-out faint
Pendulums swing from side to side
By my instinct I must abide
Intuition that I can’t trust
Love’s been scattered, crumbled to dust
Shall I pursue what I can’t win
Stacking doubts in one neat bin
Ignore the callings unsoundly built
Mem’ries tossed in a patchwork quilt
Thus I resolve I must embrace
I cannot know where is my place
Pitstops break up the treach’rous way
Trav’ling by night don’t rest by day
A means without an end is naught
No dream unearthed that can be sought
Blind faith to no one does persuade
Faulty foundations had been laid
My beloved she waits no more
An infinite cavern she has bore
I found her flaws and faults I see
Alas the blame it lies in me
