I Shall Roam

The world is beckoning

Enticing me to explore

Oh, I would if I could

I would walk out that door

Then reality sets in

I have responsibilities

I can not give in

But squelching the desire

Is not good for the soul

I must feed the fire

Even if only a little

To see the world

Is my goal

One step, two steps

The third makes three

Where will my

First destination be?

Be it with friend

Be it with lover

Be it alone

I've taken my steps

The world

I shall roam
