The Weary Traveler

Oh weary traveler
What dark shadows lie beneath your eyes
Yearning for dreams beneath star-strewn skies
How does one live this way
Tossed down and guided by the wind
with only rhythmic steps for company?

Oh weary traveler
No home but the one he brings along
“Hello”, but only for a moment
“Goodbye”, the tune that echoes in his mournful song

As a heart searches for love he cannot find
So doth the traveler in his solemn quest
But what he seeks is no more than a place to rest
Such is the wonder of his kind

Oh weary traveler
What dark shadows lie beneath your eyes
