Wandering

I’m wandering on this plane of existence
Wondering where the lines will meet
Dancing in the shadowed corner
Waiting for noon day’s end

I waltz past the endless rain
Under a silky cloud
I weep
I weep as the skies wax dry

I trip on a broken heart
In pieces strewn across the lawn
Hastily cast
Left to crumble

The day falls short
Casting shadows on the still silhouettes
Dark looks a bitter tear
A scar upon the empty land

Lost
Wandering
Pondering upon the loss
Is it?

I wonder if it was worth it
Was it worth my time?
The seconds that passed
The hours spent in recollection

I can’t believe it’s done
Over, finished
Drawn to a close
In permanent mark

Sketched across the vast faces
The wall polluted with scrawl
The ancient hands stilled
Thoughts frozen in place

Place drifting apart
Losing that which is sacred
Aflame in the mind
Burning bright in noonday sun

As memories fade I wonder
Gazing upon the sky
I wander endless nights
Waiting to wake the restless dreams

Dozing away
Drifting in the sailboat of the mind
Upon desolate shores
Deserted deeds

A close
An ending
Drawing to a close
The wandering wondering

Of a restless soul.
