The Journey Yet To Begin

I miss packing my bag the night before... I miss the open road… I miss the journey… I miss the airport announcements… I miss calling Nnem Omma before the flight takes off I miss the beauty of the clouds from above them I miss waiting for my luggage to come through I miss asking for directions I miss the hotel rooms I miss the crappy food I crave that high when the plane leaves the ground I crave new sights, new smells and new food I crave a town where no-one knows my name I crave saying hello in a new language I crave new wonders and adventures I crave postcard-worthy pictures I crave the journey yet to begin
