Tourist
Winds blew me to the sky as an unworthy guest,
Flown to the dreamy times without a request,
Liberating the thought in me like a bird,
Hugging me like a lover without a word.
A tourist to my own ascension, own right, without imagination.
In the far, a golden gate, a numb fade, my adventure to deteriorate.
I saw it from afar, I sense it, she's my collar.
Shortly slowing me to sail, her sky seas to spoil.
Petrified by acceptance, the golden gate shrinks,
As her luminous white sky seas presents leaks,
In vain I try, her precious golden not to bury,
A sole tourist trying, not his golden mistress to worry.
Lost in the huge expanse of celestial seas,
I drift amidst whispers of untold and forgotten pleas.
Her golden gate now a distant and warming gleam,
An illusion shattered, a fractured dream.
Yet still, I journey on, with hope in my heart,
Though torn apart, I refuse to depart.
For amidst the chaos and the black stormy gale,
I seek redemption, a tale to unveil.
Through trials and tribulations, I persevere,
For within her realm, lies what I hold dear.
A truth to discover, a destiny to fulfill,
Though battered and bruised, I climb uphill.
