Chasing Dreams and Fading Stars



I am a traveler in this life,
Drifting through days and nights,
Chasing dreams and fading stars,
Hoping to find my place, my bars.

The world is vast, and I am small,
Yet I have a voice, a story to tell,
Of love and loss, joy and pain,
Of all that makes life worth the strain.

I've walked on mountains, sailed on seas,
I've danced in rain, and felt the breeze,
I've seen the wonders of this land,
And held the touch of a lover's hand.

But there's more to life than just the thrill,
For every joy, there's a sorrow still,
And every dream, a fear to face,
And every victory, a new race.

So, I'll keep on traveling, day by day,
Taking life as it comes my way,
Embracing all that's good and bad,
For this is the journey I have had.
