Traveler

On a journey to where only she knew
With the moon and the stars lighting her way
She enriches her life on each plateau
Her heart the compass to never astray

A journey to where only she can find
Along highways, deserts, and mountain peaks
She will travel perhaps all her lifetime
Adding to her treasures the friends she keeps

On a journey to realize her dreams
And to find her true self amidst the crowd
She truly sees nothing is what it seems
When the truth finally comes off the shroud

She meets her destiny right in the heart
It has always been with her from the start
