My Way

I shall go down to the sea                                              To find solace I shall go down to the sea                                             To find my birthplace There are no whippoorwills here                                             I cannot listen to their songs But I can find the black eyed ones on the rocks                                            That sit and wait, and watch The stretching horizon laps against the opposite shore                                            I listen, yet hear nothing I wait for that moment of revelation                                            Yet nothing comes I have no widow’s walk                                            Just that of the scrunching rocks The clouds grey and lumbering smell of snow                                             And remembrances of days gone   Do not weep for me for I am alone yet content                                            The days will go on to eternity The leaves shall wisp and die and be ground to dust                                            I will be no longer…
