Dogged Spirit

he travels light with a heavy heart
into a world from which it’s hidden
seeking what time may not let him get
the stubborn hope of his restless soul

the world is full with her memories
forsaken places he shan’t forget
dogged is this wanderer’s spirit
let pain’s filling void come take its toll

the years of yore may pass right through him
but for her his sails won’t tear apart
he’ll suffer this life because he must
it’s not for want but who would console

faith in his his love to whom he’ll impart
a life of joy to her he’d beget
