Forlorn Wanderer


A smile that could melt your soul
A rarity to sight, a mystery unbeknown


Eyes that gleam, yet so cold
With a heart that shall not unfold


In the yonder, plays a band
Happy songs of joyous lands


The eyes that gleamed, dared not discover
A loving word, an honest brother


Know not our kin, the forlon wanderer
Of joyous tunes and kindly strangers


They bring with them a wealth beyond the letter
A sobering touch to a make one feel better


With smiles undiscovered, heart stuck in his chest
Our friend none the wiser, oh what will he regret


To a destination decided, on a path less shown
Mistrusting of turf, the wanderer never comes home
