life is calling...

how long does it take to reach sunset?
how deep is ocean's bed?
is moon farther than just a look?
are mountains wilder than death?

why do i always ask of these?
cant i just follow the breeze?
i know this me is just not me,
so why dont i just set sail?

the eerie epics of the stars are yet
untold and unperceived
and in the lap of the wilderness
i shall but translate these.

the treasured tales that lie beneath
the golden sands of time
i wish to but read each grain in it
and smile for i've learnt it all.

the promise of life that still is sung
on the other side of the mount
i shall bring back and sing to you,
when i reclaim my life.

the wandering waters that for me
script the secrets of the world,
await me with arms stretched out,
oh!why am i still here!

If ever there be a truer dream
than this dream of mine
i hope that dream i answered now,
for fate acts quicker than time.
