Misty eyes roam an uncharted land
a rapture shining black and white,
inscrutable wind plays with sand
as water erupts from shade to light.

Further away from the wind's gust
behold a message of song and wine,
enshrouded memory sets free at last
will and grace elegantly intertwine.

Shaken by one final moment of truth
I take the flag of hope and determination,
and call upon both strength and youth
heart and mind are set on the destination.

Misty eyes retake the land with memory
a rapture succumbed to waters of light,
a hidden wind holds the key to eternity
as my star within finds the sky of night.
