Wake And Run

Wake and run
To meet the light
Of day to find
Beyond your sight
Your work begins
But with all might
Come home to bed
To stay the night
Begin again
A newborn day
And round and round
We cannot say
In blindness where
I'm heading to
A ship without
A rudder who
Does circle 'bout
With ghostly crew
A zombie that
I hardly knew
Some selfish break
That we might find
Ourselves in part
We've left behind
Where did I go
Along my climb
Achieve my goals
Were never mine
But to events
That never cease
You must go on
You've signed life's lease
Another year
Another ten
Will find you old
And grey but then
The journey you
Have taken end
To come to rest
Begin again
To wake and run
To meet the light
Come home to bed
To stay the night
