Voyage

Oh fountain of life, did you hear my voice calling
Amidst the roaring sounds of so many voices
Will you share with me, the tiny drops of life
Maybe for just a little while longer

Wasting moments that will never return
In this relentless search that blinds me
Chasing a future always just out of reach
Where no truths or happiness can be found

Walking with urgency, yet time to pause
No sights, no moments, not even a memory
Passing indifferent and empty of mind
Reaching journey’s end without a price

It’s then, at long last, I realize
That what I desperately sought
Was not the intended prize
But the moments I forgot to see
