I have a plan,
But no clue.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
He felt like home
The other half of my soul
My heart has always been homeless

I held a nomad's heart
Unable to take part
In settling for a love that was fruitless

Yet with him, time stood still
Leaving my fate unfulfilled
With him, I found no need to wander

Because of him, I stayed
He consumed more of my days
In him, I found safety and comfort

Then one day I realized
I became spoiled with vice
For I was a vagabond who stayed

What use are my wings
If I am not exploring
My heart was simply led astray

As though I was caught under glass
Because I had trespassed
In a home that was not meant for me

He felt like home
When I did not have my own
I was not looking for one initially

I explored love's territory
Leaving my own love's story
As I resume my journey again

There are times I still wonder
On those days of endless ponder
If I had made the right choice in the end

To see the world
It opens your eyes
Experiencing cultures
And their way of life

No words can explain
The emotions can be much
To gain something new
And have a fresh outlook

Constant learning of different ways
Broaden your being
It grows you as a person
Humbled, grounded & joyous

Heat and dryness of the desert
The openness of the ocean
The world so vast and extraordinary
With so many things to offer

Music, food, traditions
So different yet the same
Benefitting worldly wisdom
With a great deal still to wander

I walk in footsteps of a river.
And,
dreams of streams in mind.

I sing in song without notes
And,
run in flight with no wings.

I wander in pond without water
And,
light with no dark.

I walk, sing, wander, in heart
with endless roads.
Inspired by Dr. Peter Lim a master with grand insight. Do check him out
to get food for thought.
I wander through the irreplaceable night
waiting for the grey vagueness of dawn.

It isn't always so complicated;
the deepest things are simple at their root.

When the wolf wanders into the valley
does she hesitate at the fork?
Does she wonder about the untrod path,
or just stick to the banal evil of normal?
She prods at my kidneys with her nose,
hesitates, smells the remnants of Florida,
and trots onward, not looking back.

It's second nature to love you,
but first to see my wrongs.
It's easy to miss things
in the new darkness of night.

Her restless feet,
take her somewhere;
where she can finally meet
the sky and the ocean.
For years she've been waiting;
barefoot wanderer longing for
sand and sea salt,
sunsets by the shore.

here are the words i'll never say to you.
i love you, truly.
it's a soul crushing love,
one you can physically feel.
all i feel now
is my lost soul
wandering
entwining
itself with you.
when was the last time you saw an earthworm like genuinely I haven't seen one in a really long time and i'm so concerned for the earthworms

Minds wander hours away to a place where we're connected...connected by miles of thoughts that reveal the truth of our senses...
smell (slowly breathing in the scent of hair, sun-kissed skin, excitement, and ***...create a heady bouquet of anticipated sin)
sight (eyes piercing the soul before we start a mental mind f@©k that teases, taunts & excites to the point of no return)
sound (breath in your ears causes soft moans, electric tingle & cries of pleasure, heartbeats combine...all in sync)
touch (mouthes start to devour, our bodies, both so in tune to the other, that, no words are needed only the feel of skin on skin that's on auto-pilot and every touch leads to pure indescribable ecstasy)
taste (the sweet honey essence of lips & tongues entwined, the taste of salt on skin, juices...all combine into the nector of the gods)
Falling exhausted after hours of independent sensual journey to paradise, that, we can slip away to, together, even when our minds are hours apart...
I wander like the mind of man,
Present not in the time or place in which he exists

I wander like the fallen leaf,
Sailing the river without resistance,
Bound to it’s eternal current

I wander in my sleep to the strangest of places,
Far beyond the extended arm of my imagination,
And no less so when I am awake

But no matter how far I wander,
I am still right here,
The only place I have ever been
