Looking for my place to be


I’ve been long travelling
Across that old ocean
And I’ve seen what was meant
In those long times passed

And what will I send back to you
Diamonds you’ll wear forever
Sparkling shining brightly
For you to remember me

But don’t expect me to return
As I will set my sail to cross that sea
Taking direction from strangers
Looking for my place to be.

Good poem. Last stanza really makes the poem especially the last line
