The Restless Wanderer
Goes from town to town
Running from his past mistakes
The guilt that brings him down
One day he's bound to reach the end
The end of all he is
And when it finally does arrive
Will there be nothing left but this
The guilt he's held onto for years
Is all that he has saved
Kept it closely by his side
Giving a glimpse but not away
It burns him hot to the touch
So why does he bring it up so much
He's learned to lean upon its strength
The guilt is what makes him so weak
*The Restless Wanderer
The Restless Wanderer
No purpose does he pose
The Restless Wanderer
The Restless Wanderer
*The guilt is all he knows
Goes from town to town
Running from his past mistakes
The guilt that brings him down
One day he's bound to reach the end
The end of all he is
And when it finally does arrive
Will there be nothing left but this
The guilt he's held onto for years
Is all that he has saved
Kept it closely by his side
Giving a glimpse but not away
It burns him hot to the touch
So why does he bring it up so much
He's learned to lean upon its strength
The guilt is what makes him so weak
*The Restless Wanderer
The Restless Wanderer
No purpose does he pose
The Restless Wanderer
The Restless Wanderer
*The guilt is all he knows
Written in response to my poem...
Which is a great poem itself...
Thanks Thomas...
The guilt is all he knows, my friend, for feeling guilt is safe.
It means when the day is done, he doesn't have to face...
the truth about his problems. Or the reasons for his fate...
Yes loving guilt is safer,
than facing his mistakes.
