Echoes of the Lost Path

Journeying Through the Wilderness of the Soul

In the labyrinth of life, we sometimes stray,

Where familiar paths fade to shades of gray.

Lost in the whispers of the winding way,

We wander, uncertain, where to stay.

Through tangled woods and fields untamed,

Our footsteps echo, unnamed, unclaimed.

Each turn a mystery, each bend a test,

In the pursuit of some elusive quest.

Yet in the depths of our wandering soul,

We find treasures hidden, beyond control.

Forgetting destinations, embracing the unknown,

We discover beauty where we're alone.

So let us not fear when we lose our way,

For in the wilderness, we learn to sway.

Through getting lost, we truly find,

The essence of life, in every bind.
