I am a traveler
I walk thousands of miles
Through the bone yards in the desert sands
Through the steaming jungle breathing at night
Over the jagged mountain peaks
Across the arctic ice and snow
In and out of forests dark and deep
Caves, volcanoes and chasms steep
I am finding you
I am a traveler
I travel far and wide
Fly across the star swollen sky
Trudge the surface of the crater-pocked moon
Swim the black depths of the Mariana Trench
Dig down into the core of the earth
Wander with the dead in the underworld
Consult with witches, wizards and ghosts
I am finding you
I am a traveler
It has been years and years…
I arrive at your city at night
Your gates swing open
And you let me in
You say:
“It’s been so long, where have you been?
Take my hand, it’s time to go
I am a traveler too
Now I travel with you
Round and round these worlds we’ll go
Never stop and never grow old…”
I am found in you.
