Sai’s reflective poem is about a timeless journey of discovery and self-discovery, exclusively for Different Truths.

A time a place for me to be
A time for land to meet the sea
To pursue the path unknown
While whispers and callings drone
Reach up to the high, endless blue
A place where no memory knew
An endless quest haunts
A place where the heart yearns to go
Wondrous places of excellence
Each world is greater than the next
Wonder and imagination capture the mind
While a heavy heart beats in time
Hope of all leads the way
To a place where home can lay
Run on forward towards the day
Let the sun lead the way
Above all, the terrifying quest
Leaves the pacing mind no time to rest
Makes the heart leap and run
Leaves me thinking it will never be done
But finally the cave opens up
The path has reached the very last mark
No more to roam; home is near
No fear for night; day is clear
On the road to destiny.
