The Voyage Poem by Meng Lim Dr

The Voyage


Stay, with yourself, stay:

ride over the stormy waves

the shore isn't far away

towards there let your eyes gaze


upon this perilous voyage

you have decided to sail

a promise you must keep

let not your resolution fail.


Despite the absence of light

let your heart be the compass

this alone is your greatest fight

nothing could be the less


and dawn sets in at last

your boat reaches the golden sand

your dream you have realised

and you will say: I will do this all over again!
