(the wanderer!)
The light of the moon
..and the star-less sky
the clear of the water
the smell, oh my!
The figure beside me
Strolling by my side
Comforts me, soothes me
Becomes my guide
Gives me hope of surviving,
Of inspiring, Of striving
Of pushing me to wander
Of drifting away, and ponder
On my decisions, and my devices
On my free will, my moves with my dices'¦
'¦I thank my companion in this expedition
a flick of nature, a switch of anticipation
but as i look around to feel my helper
to thank, to bow, to smile yonder
my glance sway to the shadow in the water

the shadow was mine all along
i was my own companion
the lone wanderer.
