Adrift at sea, is where no one has found me. I am not a sailor and not a pirate
I am a lonesome wonderer and doomed survivor.
I am looking for my way home, a place to call my own, a place where I belong
to warm my feet, have some food to eat, and enjoy the company of a fire.
The silence is a nice break for once, away from all the distractions of the world
just me, myself and I to sail around middle earth.
I am not on a boat, not as safe as it would seem.
A block of ice broke apart, beneath my feet.
Through the chilled waters of purgatory this glacier well drift
me sitting a top, heavy hearted and stiff.
I can not find closure, not here not now
the water is bitter, it offers no comfort.
Heavy hearted, I am anchored
to the bottom, down, down, down.
The pressure builds as the abyss consumes me
swallowed whole this is my funeral.
In search of comfort, I struggle to hold my breath
as I near the end.
Chest on fire, in the frigid arctic water
clawing for the surface, I can see no more.
Blackness, just blackness
no light at the bottom
It is here in the mud
where I find my solace
My body lay lifeless
in the land of lost corpses
Alone, the wonderer
has found a home
Man to earth, turned to stone
man to earth, he is unknown.
