A LONE WANDERER!

It goes wandering,destination unknown
Every step promises a new horizon,
A sign it has a long way to go.

It meets people from the past,
They share laughter,they fight,they howl,they whine
They attempt to undo the wrongs,set some things right.

It meets new people,people it wishes to know,to like,and to love
They have endless chats of future,they laugh,they weep
It attempts to create a whimsical world,ideal to itself.

It has traversed rock strewn paths that cut and bleed
It braves the storms in the endless sea
It crosses rivers whose depth it cannot fathom,mountains whose peaks it cannot reach.

Now it has meandered way too far
It's lost in some dark,menacing woods
Peril lurks at each turn,fear weighing it down

It's now in despair,lonely,
Its garb of merry long gone
Grotesque images blinding its vision.

It wants to return,it aches to gallop back
It wants to rest in the comfort of the known.
Realizes it should dwell in the present,not delve in the past!

But the job of tracing back is gargantuan
For it has left no trail
It'll have to be yanked out of its reverie,it's gone offshore!

I yearn for it too
I need it for my sanity,for my peace
Someone help it come back!
