On this journey of life
Gliding along the path
In the wilderness without a guide
No light to shine the way
Solitude at times like this
Not always welcome
Through the darkness
Alone and with no hope
The darkness closes in
On my soul, and upon my heart
This despear can longer be held
Searching for the answers
Alas, they are far from my grasp
Your light was close
But now it's far away
Your love was cherished
But now it's gone
Destined to live this life alone
I wander the hills and streams
Searching for an escape
From the pain and hurt
Happen upon a cove
As the surf crashing around
I lay my head upon the sand
Wave upon wave flowing over my head
Drifting further into sleep
A slumber that has no awakening
Breathing in the mist and spray
Sand entering with each passing wave
Shallow breaths as blackness envelopes me
Drifting off, life escaping
Lungs screaming for relief
I see a light in the dark
Gazing towards the source
It's not but a tourch
Suspended in air by the breeze
Letting this darkness take hold
I give myself freely
To rest alone til Days End.
