Classification: Poetry
Theme: Life
Synopsis: Life is a journey full of peaks and valleys.
The black wings that stretched away to the ether—
Birthed millions of stars;
And guarded the mystic dreams like an angel.
As I looked heavenward,
The north wind brushed against my skin ferociously;
With untold droplets of soul fragments that came to water me.
I had waited too long for the melody of the bluebird,
But it never came.
I had searched too far for the ship's rudder,
But I only got tired.
Then I came across a fallen lamp post,
And thought of wayfarers who also got lost on their own journeys.
They must be in dire straits.
As the odyssey continued,
I had seen what was behind me;
But what about those after the Lindens?
Trains kept passing by—
With passengers saying goodbye;
And I knew now why I never stopped exploring the unknown.
