Solitude Aeturnus White Ship
I was but a traveler Floating endless through the sea On the other side of knowledge Through the pliancy of dreams And voices there upon the ship Spoke of radiant place's splendor Beautiful shores with sands of gold Wherein exists no torment or pain What was I looking for What could I have hoped for On the white ship I sailed through the night As we traveled for the Land Eternal We passed many a peaceful harbor Where we could have found vibrant life In a world known only in dreams But vibrant was not eternal So we continued upon our quest Through misty lagoons of sparkling blue And on through the pillars of the West The land must be adorned by beauty unknown Never before beheld The land of eternal life Which ocean secrets that had held And as we left those shores of hope And neared the end of the quest The waters rose up before me And fell there sharply beyond The white ship and I were taken Into man's withered and dying arms What was I looking for What could I have hoped for The time that was mine was to parish with life
