Success

i travel day after day
a barefooted journey
over the rocky road.
then to the open sea.
sailing alone, with no one.
not even my shadow with me.
only indicates the absence of light,
it's nowhere.
it might have hidden itself behind the scud.
or i'm maybe just blind.

wind comes whispering to my ears,
reminding me the sweetness of my every dream.
i'm awaken! i'm alive!
but where is the moon,
where are the stars?
unseen? covered?
am i sleeping, am i blind?

then the boat touches the shore.
is this it? am i here?
my destination, my final call?
i see... the shining sun,
the green land.
i've finally reached it!
after the big waves of the ocean,
the rough rocks of the land,
and the absence of light at that night.
i'm here at last!
