Traveling Without Going Anywhere

I learned to swim in the deepest depths of my soul,

Surfing through the waves of sadness and regret

I traveled through the nights of my busyness of mind

To the tranquil prison of my heart

I climb the mountains of self doubt,

Reaching the deserts of self worth, seeking an oasis

I am learning to depart from the damp stickiness of my groundedness

To spread my wings and finally learn how to fly

Free as a butterfly
