Journey's End
My heart wandered through the forest
searching for the right path to follow
seeking its destiny
fearful there would be no sanctuary
Stumbling along
the soul marred by branches blocking the way
there seemed to be no peace
but too quiet without companionship
Ahead there was a bend in the path
hazy light filtering through the looming oaks
inspiring hopes
of finding fate's open hand
Forging on, wary of the unknown
but unwilling to turn back
wanting to uncover the answers
needing to find a harbor from the storms of life
Then brightness enveloped the end of the path
I had reached a shelter
the glow shedding warmth within me
pulling my soul to its center
I touched the face of my love
and in that moment
clarity dawned
I had reached my journey 's end
My heart wandered through the forest
searching for the right path to follow
seeking its destiny
fearful there would be no sanctuary
Stumbling along
the soul marred by branches blocking the way
there seemed to be no peace
but too quiet without companionship
Ahead there was a bend in the path
hazy light filtering through the looming oaks
inspiring hopes
of finding fate's open hand
Forging on, wary of the unknown
but unwilling to turn back
wanting to uncover the answers
needing to find a harbor from the storms of life
Then brightness enveloped the end of the path
I had reached a shelter
the glow shedding warmth within me
pulling my soul to its center
I touched the face of my love
and in that moment
clarity dawned
I had reached my journey 's end
