Disclaiming Destinations
When I walked away, I couldn’t say, I knew
On when and where I would make my return
All seemed silly to me, promises to keep
So I stepped out in faith, mindless to mindfulness
Just to do, what I needed to do instantaneously
For if I would have thought about you first, before I
Then we would have both perished straightaway
So now I’m that beacon, that you will be seeking
To better yourself or to travel towards for retribution
No map to follow, just an imaginary pathway to surprise
Real to your eyes, is how you will begin to realize
Surpassing me, till we meet again, maybe as friend or foe
Time will tell what new we will be told by introductions
Winding through narrow passages past broad boulevards
You said you are determined to go right, as I did concur
But you stumbled from starting out leading with your left
Tears did fall from your eyes, frustrated from presence of reality
About facing, using mind and doctrines of retracing steps to clarity
Finding the familiarity of friendly faces in those places erased
Eureka is now your place of permanent peace and comfort
Solace for the weary traveler, in these actions you find rest
Leaving home more surely in days to come, never more conceited
Talking less, while acting out more completely, by just walking
Never to boast or share your travels and company keeping
Complete and fulfilled in actions instead of Disclaiming Destinations!
