American I like writing, even if it always isn't that great.
Oh weary traveler How can you even stand to walk  beside me? I am but a simple girl Nothing special Craving for the adventure That never comes The sweet taste of freedom Fresh on my lips Not today, not ever I walk down a familiar path Hoping to find an unexpected turn I hope to lose myself But I just come out the other side As always "You will go to the paper towns and you will never some back." I find this to be true The paper towns are slowly suffocating me Dragging me down into the deep darkness of familiarity Peter, come retrieve your Wendy Alice lead me to the rabbit hole My life is made up of landmarks on a map leading nowhere

Wanderlust
In between here and there, close to near- Lies a place to see Full of things unknown Especially to me A place where , you never grow old- Where Children laugh- And fantastic stories are told A place I wait to see A safe Haven for all- A place lost in time, Free from the fall Leading to Death The light slants through the trees- As they run Their souls it sets free, Granting Immortality

Here and There
Walking down a desolate road nothing to my right nothing to my left just keep moving should I stop I know not would happen Should I hesitate the consquences could be dire I know not what lies before me all I know is the past the past is like a surprise visitor sometimes the guest is merrily welcomed bringing joy other times the guest is a burden weighing you down making you question the things you have done but you need to keep moving remember only the good times remember no matter what you do you can repent and better yourself and keep the hope something better is coming nothing stays harsh forever hold your head high and know no matter what you do no matter what you say someone is waiting for you at the end of your journey their arm is extended and they are beckoning you forward longing to bring you home we are always moving never stopping.
