The Journey (for Scotty)
With tainted heart
and saddened soul
I move beneath this veil
of fleeting smiles
and silent nods
In my heart is caged a tale
of hunger and desire
to see into this world I linger
My stay is short
a gentle breeze
a caressing of your fingers
I sit up here upon my hill
thinking thoughts of wander
to see the new
explore the old
Life's mysteries I shall ponder
Though I walk this path alone
you're with me all the while
For in each new place
I'll climb my hill
Think of you my friend
and smile
