A Wanderer's Lament

This journey I have wandered
Is down a road not taken,
For this way is left undone,
Left for me to pave a way.

A voice calls out to greet me
In the memories I hold on to,
Pressing through tragedies
As I travel this foreign path.

This way knows no comfort,
 For sorrow is my company,
Along the crooked highways,
That never have an end.

And as I go through this valley
And pass though this dessert,
I lament my wearisome ways
In tears that will never shed.

Pity has my companionship
And worry travels with me,
Seeking fast for the things
I never knew I had lost.

Until now.
