A Journey

(Preface: This poem is inspired by the game Journey, developed by thatgamecompany, it is a very deep game and very cinematic.)


A journey
Whether glittering sands
Or sparkling snow
A journey
Done with fellows
Or 
Alone
A journey
In great ancient halls of old
Or resting outside reading the stars as fate foretold
A journey 
With the magic of life
Gliding through the air
Just nature
No traffic
No thoroughfare
A journey
It seems that carpet 
In a place however far-fetched 
Still shouldn't be able to fly 
Yet
As a beautifully-fletched arrow
It just glides through the sky
A journey
At some point must always end
The evil creatures at the peak
You must dispel them for the peace you seek
A final peace to keep
Send them back to whence they came
Lest
 You join your slain friend
In a final rest
A journey
A journey to the end

I really liked the ending, about how you'll join your dead friend. The friend is dead right? Did the person die?
