"Pilgrim"

Wandering
across the Earth
marching
far and wide

Man alone
with violent heart
stands upright
and cannot rest

My entire life
I've sought
a home and hearth
to call my own

Yet always known
deep within
that home is where
we all must end

Each day
a journey
each night
without rest

Looking up
to Heaven
and back down
to Earth

I know at last
why my heart so aches
life with death
for the sake of love
