“Can you spot a pattern?

I am leaving this harbour
Giving urban a farewell
Its habitants seem to keen on God
I cannot stomach their rights and wrongs

Wanderlust! relentlessly craving
Wanderlust! peel off the layers
Until we get to the core

Did I imagine it would be like this?
Was it something like this I wished for?
Or will I want more?

Lust for comfort
Suffocates the soul
Relentless restlessness
Liberates me

I feel at home
Whenever the unknown surrounds me
I receive its embrace
Aboard my floating house

Wanderlust! from island to island
Wanderlust! united in movement
Wonderful! I’m joined with you”

wan-der-lust [won-der-luhst] – (noun) – a strong, innate desire to rove or travel about.

The feeling of wanderlust inspires my soul and opens my eyes to more.  Quenching the thirst of wanderlust humbles me.  I’m stretched like a rubber band way beyond the point of comfort but after some experiences come back closer to comfort yet with much more perspective and excitement for more.

Whether it’s wanderlust or something different, what in life does this to you?
