Halfway through the journey
Winter came to stay
The ones I met along my path
Chased the cold away
Memories of twisting
Beneath the starry sky
Kept the wind from swirling in
And pulled my spirits high.
Once I was a singer,
Though po-ems tinged my dreams.
The journey saw an end to that
And waking- raced from me.
Shattering and scattered
Like stars across the skies
Out of reach and far away;
I wished on while I tried.
I never really minded though
Or mourned the goals I lost
For losing each and everything
Was freedom's exact cost.
Explaining this to others
Was pointless to me though
For how can others understand
The open road's my home?
