The Wanderer

Wandering into darkness, in a cold and quiet night

A broken soul slowly moves through the long chasm, .

Between shadows and sea, the tired soul finally sits near water.

The soul is confused and stares at an old vessel, filled with grief.

There’s no light or warmth in this vessel, time seems to have stopped…

Submerged deep in the shadows, the last few memories of this vessel will slowly vanish…

The Soul observes and thinks…

Will the Sun shine as bright as before? Was this vessel happy? Was I loved?

The soul touches the vessel and quickly devours the last few memories…

An empty meal filled with sadness, the empty vessel… was it a part of me?

I can feel it painfully drifting through the sea of life, full of hope.

The tale of this sad broken ship, now stranded, and forgotten to all.

I still can feel pain… this vessel was yearning for a touch of love.

Anchored into nothingness, unable to sail… the vessel can’t dream now.

Lost in a lifetime of darkness, chained to regrets and failures.

It was built on dreams that will never be, just like me…

Am I a lost hope?

No one will touch this crippled vessel again; will someone love me?

The soul stares at the empty vessel one last time, weeping crystal shards

Her eyes close slowly and prays, pain is mixed with disappointment and fear

Frozen in an eternal night and hopeless, the vessel is lost into nothingness

The soul wonders around and reflects for a moment, then sings a broken song…

Finally, a silent farewell, no more tears, breaths into the light and remembers…
