I'll keep on walking
though with no inkling where
to stop would spell my
moral death-- I care
not what I'd find there
the walking without ceasing
shall be my self-purging
(but do I really know
the root-cause of the burden
that I bear?)

most people would swear
in their eagerness and self-justifying
(with the badge of honour they wear-
they did right all their life
only the glory of their deeds
they will declare)-

nothing I could claim
I'm not one of them
no certificate of merit
have I earned
none knows my name
(and how free is my heart
to know to none I belong
no cause to celebrate
with none to deliberate
beyond love and hate--
life is my choice
I have none to blame)-

I'll keep on walking....
