Lost Horizon
The stars led me into the far away world of hope
Where Shangri-La and Nirvana hide out,
Not giving any feelings that would lead me to them
I am led by the North Star, assuring myself all is well
Sounds in the brush keep me alert, but I feel protected
The horizon may be lost, but it is obtainable. I am optimistic
The Valley of the Blue Moon this must be
The cosmos are brilliantly glowing now
Guiding me toward the land for the forgotten and discouraged
I feel hopeful that I will reach the Lost Horizon soon
She is just a bit out of my reach; I can feel her essence.
She will nurture me and make me whole again, revitalize me.
I walk steadily onward, with conviction that this pilgrimage
is exactly what I need to get over the horrible deaths in my family
I look toward the North Star, and she winks at me.
