A Gypsy’s Diary

I’m driven from and addicted to the Open road

That pungent smell of wild oats freshly sewed

 

I’m finally home,

So worn down

I put up my tired feet

 

I Close my eyes,

But can still feel

Vibrations of the street

 

The lights are out, but I hear the sirens calling

The rights of doubt, are really quite appalling

 

The Heights are met, as I dream of ever falling

My sights are set, shouldn’t life be enthralling?

 

The lies men live when their home feels foreign

My eyes are merely wings, of an eagle soaring

 

A misfit Nomadic heart yearns the unknown

So quit the affliction and put away the phone

I admit I’m an addict, don’t mind being alone

A spirit in the attic, the ghost of being grown
