Deja Vu

These dreams in my head

of a place with an end.

 

A road

stretching and winding

through the hills of time.

A place with an end.

 

The end of the road

a place where we can all happily abode

in a place we love and know.

 

A goal,

a place with an end.

 

I have been wandering these hills

and the nearby flat lands.

There is no grand road

to direct what I know

and show me the way to go.

 

I still wander

as the grass grows

and the river flows

looking for that road.

 

Eventually

after centuries

of strolling through the trees,

I came to a place I had seen

in a dream.

But instead of a road-

a stream-

and a boat

in which I now float

to a place

and the end.
