Pilgrims |
| Sometimes you feel so far away, |
| Distance from all the action of the play, |
| Unable to grasp signinficance, |
| Marking the plot with diffident dismay, |
| Standed at centre stage, |
| Scrabbling through your diary for a lost |
| Page: unsure of the dream. |
| Kicking a stone across the beach, |
| Aching for love and comfort out of reach, |
| The way ahead seems to be so bleak, |
| There’s no-one with any friendship left to |
| Speak or show you any relation |
| Between your present and future |
| Situation: lost to the dream. |
| Away, away, away: look to the future day |
| For hope, some form of peace within the |
| Growing storm. |
| I climb through the evening, |
| Alive and believing: |
| In time we shall all know our goals |
| And so finally, home. |
| For now all is secret — |
| Though how could I speak it, |
| Allow me the dream in my eye. |
| I’ve been waiting for such a long time |
| Just to see it at last, |
| All of the hands tightly clasped, |
| All of us pilgrims. |
| Walking in silence down the coast, |
| Merely to journy — here hope is the most; |
| Merely to know there is an end, |
| All of us — lovers, brothers, sisters, friends |
