I would like to take a trip, but the only bags I own
Are the ones weighing down my eyes

My feet long to set out, but
They are often outpaced by my mind

My body doesn’t move an inch because the nerve
Has crawled up from out my spine

The eyes blink to signal I’m alive, but behind those oval blinds
An echo

You’ll be fine
