The Light Tower : Will I ever find a succor for my Soul?

My heart grows weary from this unending journey

My boat weakened and my paddle lost from the last storm I managed to survive

I'm sailing longer than I prepared for

I didn't plan to be here this long

The faces I'm familiar with are all gone

The ones we started together ended their course a long time ago

The whispers of the sea haunt me in my dreams

The shadows of the night trails behind me

The cold out here is beyond me

Will I ever make it to the light tower?

I can barely see its light from afar

I dream of it every minute

When will I get to the place of refuge

A place to comfort my misery

A place where strength will be restored and I will be refreshed

I'm still in the middle of the sea...

Wonderful poem you have here, whenever I come across a great and well written poem I always wish I also have the talent in me to write a good poem. I don't know if you can put me through in writing a poem.
