So Far and Wide | A Poem

Not all is lost

As we wander

To and fro

Searching for our souls

Far and wide

Searching

The empty divide

~

Not all is empty

This loathing path

Of disarray

Like clumsy youth

We bump in the dark

Searching for our souls

Far and wide

Searching

With so much to hide

 ~

But thou cast a thin façade

Your blood is red

And so is mine

We share our pain, our dreams, our love

And before this day is done

We share these things as one

No longer searching

Far and wide

Finding

All our fear’s subside

 ~

Not all is lost

Lest we dream

Hope and love and life are real

It can be done

If we try

It can be done

So far and wide
