Not All Those Who Wander Are Lost


Laughter in the eyes of a man on the street,

We learn something new with each person we meet.

Over miles and oceans, to places untamed,

We all have a heartbeat, our blood is the same.

 

Explore the secrets of the Earth,

Find all there is to find.

You will find your greatest worth

In the locked doors of your mind.

 

What happened to curiosity?

I fear that it is dead.

There's countless wonders in the world,

They watch T.V. instead.

 

They lock themselves away, make a prison of their home,

Don't travel, have adventures, explore, wander, or roam.

You need to see the world, it's incredible to view.

Push past your furthest limits,

To create a better you.

 

Let go of hate and judgment,

It's a refreshing way to be.

Stray from home and comfort zones,

And then you'll be set free.
