You will know me when you see me
Though we never will have met
For I am a wind blown walker
Of the type that worlds forget

Though I wander many places
There are none I call my home
Though I ventured many spaces
There are many yet to roam

Though I comb through many ruins
There is much yet I've not seen
I'll not stop this life of travel
Not for any role I've been

And I wonder, as I wander,
If I'll ever find it yet
But what it is I search for
I know I may never get

From old Denver to Big Mountain
Back through Hub, Mojave, Tsines;
Out to Tucson and Salt City
Have my walk boots made their lines

Though I wander many places
Crying "Lonely!" to the skies
I am Marked to all their faces
And you all avert your eyes

I know little why I ramble
With no home or country-flag
But what it is I search for
Does not fare well in the slag

So I wander many places
Not to die or truly live
More machine within my scarred skin
Than the body I did give

There's a road I barely traveled
Though I went there not by choice
To which I have sent too many
By my gun and blade and voice

Though I walk through many places
Still this one road calls my names
It's a road I must adventure
That I fear may end in flames

And I wonder as I wander
If it proves I find it first
Will I take this thing I look for
With me when I'm gone and cursed?

I have witnessed many monsters
Both of freak and human kind
Seems a waste to waste so many
When there's violence inclined

But to marry, 'fore I'm buried,
Is a dream I have not shared;
Those I cared for never offered
And the rest were far too scared

God I wonder as I wander
Many faces under heel
In irradiated deserts
If this love thing I can feel

For I am myself apparent
As a Cain and Killer more
A wanderer from the headstone-
Won't go back that road once more

Though I wander many places
There are none I call my home
Though I ventured many spaces
I've so many left to roam

Sad, in my head, but pretty enough.

Pretty, if not a bit melancholy. The feeling is one I find rather familiar. I guess it's just that time of year again. 'Tis the season of confusing emotions, fa la la la la la la la la! :holly:

True, this. Particularly when transferring them to more literal realms in our head.

Pretty in a wanderer's way.

You say that, and I think this: [link] - the last section, 'The Black Blade'.

All ways I would describe the Fallout series that inspired it, save that it lacks the 'dynamic' and 'funny' that Fallout usually has alongside 'sad', 'cool', and 'awesome'. But, I'm grateful to have three of five for a brain dribble. :D
