Restless (2012)

[sophiathesailor]

I tried

I left behind the chaos and uncertainty

I sought out predictability and routine

I embraced normality 

I explored new opportunities 

I found new experiences to try 

I conformed to the expectations of life

Yet I’m drowning under the mundane

I long for adventure and unpredictability

Yet I know it won’t heal the pain

I dream of shores far away

Yet I know if my feet touch that reality

I’ll cry into the loneliness of my soul

I seek for love and acceptance 

Yet no matter where I search

It is not to be found for me

The days blur and pass

My smile withers and fades

Hope appears when he is home

Yet is crushed when I’m discarded

My routine and his are not compatible

His door won’t open for me

The hope just a fantasy

I tried to be worth enough to enter 

I want to run away

Yet I’ve been to the corners of the earth

And there was no escape

So I’ll stay in the prison I’ve created

And dream of death saving me

From all that which discarded me

[restless--love]

The intimacy of being read to by your person or reading to them.

What is it that makes some of us

unable to sit still to always

want to be somewhere else

to seek new experiences

to reach for skies unknown?

What is the thing inside of us

that makes us dream of

leaving while already journeying

from one place to the next

from one person to the next?

What does this curse of being

a restless soul really mean?

Can we ever find real joy in this?

Is it actually the journey that counts?

I have traveled a lot but yet what

really comes back to mind

from all those escapades every

time I sit down and relax for a bit

are the simple little moments.

A conversation late at night

around a fire the story told and

the tears shed and the inspiration

that came out of it.

A humid night outside a bodega

drinking rum with people unknown

and sharing stories about lives so

different that seemed unreal.

All night drinking parties that

ended with breakfast the madness

of living the moment and no more.

Sitting on the balcony and she

playing the guitar and singing

Desperado to me as goodbye.

A cold night on a motorbike

going up the mountains to

frieze the hurt of a break up

and start life anew.

Those moments simple as they were

made me who I am today or

rather showed me who I always

was someone who only lived when on

the move and/or on the verge of leaving.

Is this really a curse for me?

I'd say that this rather is my blessing

since I've gained more than I lost

on my long journey towards today.
