Traveler

I love you more
than you will ever know,
than I could ever show -
far deeper than the ocean
in the moon glow.

 

But every word I utter 

brings you just grief.
So our time in the world
was fleeting and brief.

 

Alone I have left you
with peace in your mind.
Alone I shall wander,
searching to find

a face in the world
to match you.

 

There is a love that for you
the years hold in store.
But my path, traveled far,
ends in a cold, distant shore.
Here I stare at the stars
and shout til I'm hoarse - 

but the heavens show no remorse.
