That Camino Feeling

[Iriebabel]

Feelings of despair I cannot hide
All the loneliness I feel inside
Fleeting moments wondering thru space and time
Never knowing exactly what I will find

How can this be why do I feel so frail
My emotions turning me inside out, locked in a jail
Of my own making I face the truth
Always wishing to return to my youth


Can I change what I cannot explain
Can I recover from the strain
But I continue sometimes in vain
Fighting endlessly thru the pain


Flowing along an endless stream
Searching for a future yet to be seen
My thoughts submerged hidden beneath the ripples of sand
I am lost to feelings I just don’t understand


To walk the camino I will go today
Don’t stop walking, step by step with no delay
On this quest to find the true meaning of my existence
I soon learned I was never truly lost , despite my insistence


What I had inside, I would soon discover again
With each step I vowed to reach Santiago in the end
Inside my pack I carried my fears
In this I also carried the weight of my tears


At the end of my walk I felt insight and clarity
Eventually clearing my mind of all the insanity
I feel better now and I now know my true life’s plan
Tomorrow another camino, confirmation yes indeed, I can


I found out I can do anything If set my mind to not quit
I saw my reflection in the waters which guided me on this trip
I saw faith… staring back at me telling me to continue on
Forge ahead peregrino you are forever strong
