Throughout my years of wanderlust and pain
I’ve come to realise my greatest fear thus far
I’m terrified to go away too soon
Because I grasped the beauty of the Earth
While dreaming of the Sun and Moon.
And such a great shame it would be
…
To go away before I get to taste
The salt of each of its capricious seas
And smell the scent of their eternal breeze
…
To go away before I get to see
The sunset paintings on the cloudy skies
And the refreshing glare of sunrise after night
…
To go away before I get to hear
Eternal poems of the waves
And fauna’s endless lullabies
…
To go away before I get to feel
The Bittersweet old memories
Of long desired youth
…
To go away too soon, a great shame that would be.
