Wanderlust

Sometimes you need to wander Without a cause Without purpose Without a means Without a reason for knowing why Sometimes you need to wander With lust With purposeful lust With a need to move from a stationary position With no thoughts of a home With no white picket fence Sometimes you need to wander Like down the Missouri River Like a snowflake Like a bouncing ball Like a child with an imagination To wander and wonder What is on the other side of the moon To wander to the moon because it might be pink Maybe we spend our time wondering Why we don't wander Because we are afraid of the big wonder If we were to wander Maybe we spend our time wondering Why we don't wander Because we are afraid of facing loss If we were to wander Sometimes we need to wander Because of a broken heart Because time changes in small moments But the Earth wanders around the Sun And the stars wanders through the empty Milky Way And the bumble bee wanders away from the hive And our hearts wanders with lust for a better home And our hearts wanders with every humming beat of our souls for a better moment
