VisionQuest, Keltischer Junge
Unearthing sacred truths bring to light
so many things that beforehand lay hidden
and his voice rings clear and true
he fell off the wall, neither I nor you
to be himself and all he could be
with or without all the kings horses or men
to be yourself his fervent wish
the road we each must take, alone
the futility we often times come against
a madding crowd - formidable, unforgiving
but the greatest hindrance lay within
laying down the dream is sure defeat
a parade, his childhood dream to see
and that he attained, however brief
the truth - his passing is not in vain
his light reveals the way of freedom
that gaze is faraway - not unfocused
meeting another set of questing eyes
sweetly surrender - a dream's demise
and like a phoenix - a new dream arise
