This Wayward Journey

by NightFlyer   May 3, 2024



Forest roads, winding through the blackness of forever
Beneath the watchful eyes of Heaven
And the eternal presence of all who have died
Their moment of unity, here in this windy abyss.

Mesmerized with memories
Driving toward the distant lights of my town
I, a rider of eternity
In the realm of desolate night roads
Past the frozen chill of forests and graveyards.

The purple black reaches of sky and horizon
Pulling me rapidly forward
But realizing I have no home but this windy road and a lifetime of memories
Saved in bittersweet images.

Lonely but drawn to the beauty of this cold velvet evening
In an ocean of feeling
My birth and death, dim points of light in this wayward journey
United with the heavens and ages
Guiding me in my long ride home.
