Drifter (Poetry)

Drifter (Poetry)

Waiting for a sign, drifting blind
Playing the seasons over in my mind
I feel like I’ve been drifting for years
Paralyzed by my unexplained fears

I’m a dreamer, I can tell you that
But this spirit in me, I feel it going flat
I need to let the best part of me
Come out, I need to set it free

I’m a drifter, always have been
Always will be, can’t help but be romantic
The many words I’ve written
Would prove that fact
I need to dream, I need to believe
In something much greater

Always giving, not expecting to receive
Ever more, I’m a drifter
