Directionless Horizon

The depths captivate me, A river as vast as the sea. Thoughts recede with the tide Murky waters that swallow my pride A crescent moon lurks in the sky Morbid radiance that caught my eye, So alone, yet surrounded by an ocean of stars Imperfect orb riddled with scars. Tracing constellations with my fingers Only emptiness lingers, Scanning space for the unknown Looking for answers yet to be shown. Home is non-existent, But my tired feet remain persistent One foot in front of the other Baby steps without the help of another Directionless I walk, So lonely I swear the trees could talk But I know I must continue moving I’ll admit, the uncertainty is slightly soothing Grinning a defeated smile I collapse in the sand for awhile, Searching a sky so distant Once a man, now an infant.
