Distance had been traveled
Revelations come and gone
Dampening dreams
Reshaping the outcomes

Next to me
Always so near
Never have I felt this absolved
A quest felt by so many before me

Habitats have changed
Memories move and flow
Have they stayed true?
Mentioning my memory of you?

Observing to keep the same straight face
Just to move my feet along the ground
Obstacles of mountains and men
Jokes of tall tales and long days

Beside all of these years
Far and near
Beside my side and invisible
Forget these fears and I know you will stay near
