Voyage Home

Sailing planet’s seven seas

Searching for home, life be free

Scouting horizon’s distance

Globetrotting with persistence

Navigating stormy seas

Crossing without gentle breeze

Tasting bitterness each day

Observing clouds, gloomy gray

Spending endless hours at sea

Scouting for home’s hidden key

Fleeing long-forgotten goals

Looking out one more porthole

Haunting, longest nights at sea

Racing in sailing’s grand prix

Losing track of endless time

Enduring life’s wintertime

Dreaming of home, never free

Waking up, always at sea

Knowing this quest just might end

Finding home, let’s not pretend
