Slowly wandering,
From near to far.
Slowing not stopping,
We all drift

I desire to smell the flowers that grow in your allies
The ones that colour the streets even in the darkest light
And walk the trail of stars your people leave behind
When their wandering towards new wonders
As they turn new corners in their lives
I dream of floating in your scent, that dances in the wind
Carrying culture, history, and your nature in its wings
I’ll dance amongst your voices, and sway with their melodies
The laughter will carry me to your quiet little streets
And somewhere in the silence I’ll start to miss my home
Until your stars will start to wrap me in your ethereal glow
And from then on along your yellow brick roads
I’ll make your love my home

It’s time to explore.
And leave footprints in the mud.
Don’t squander this life.

You penetrate my mind
Opening me up
Stroking my brain
Your words are divine
So much wisdom and knowledge
You come inside me
Explore the depths of my sea
You're a true visionary
Refusing to let go
As you dive within me
Thrusting those words
When I'm fully absorbed
You kiss me softly.

My heart
left my ribcage empty
sick of self doubt
and feeble bones
it went exploring beyond
its comfort zone
leaving me
with just memories
filling a void of
what was once
love

We soft fingers
linger
on the locked
door
laid before
the world
we abhor,

wooden rot
ready to be open
so, we can explore
the radiant wonders
that lay
in the day
on the other side
of this dark night
life.

I want to go
where the sun is clear
and the air is fresh-
somewhere I can be at peace
