So, I found this recently. I wrote it about a year ago I think...It's me. In a nutshell. A wordy nutshell.
To travel far and far away
Has longtime been my dream
To see the lights in yonder skies
And bask in foreign moonlight's gleam.
To run through verdant pastures in
A land awash in colors bright
To step into the ocean and feel
it's pull and never-ceasing might.
To feel the sun, warm and quickening
On some forgotten sand-filled shore,
And fall in love in a cafe where
hundreds have done the same before.
To feel the rush of wind
Against my face turned to the storm.
And walk in paths that, through the years,
Sojourner's weary feet have formed.
To live, and see, and not just know,
That surely is my heart.
Yet dreaming will not take me there
And so I must depart.
