The Journey...

i have sailed the 7 seas yet never tasted the waters...

i have drowned countless times but have lived to see the day...

i have dreamed of a land of spring and endless summers...

but i’m still sailing through the storm and still finding my way...

with only a moon at night to guide me along...

i sail further ahead to find the northern star...

my heart feels broken, but my spirit remains strong...

i had thoughts of giving up... but no... i’ve come so far...

at last... i see a light shining ever so bright...

can’t believe that i’ve found it after all this time...

i have wished so hard and wished with all my might...

to find a heart of gold and now it’s finally mine...

Exploring but not taking it all in. Dying but living. Seeing the horizon be clouds try to devour. Hope is in the light from that Northern star - well conveyed. You found it in the closure and you exude hope in the closure. Well written.
