my feet cannot follow my heart no longer

my heart is calling me to a place

I often yearn to find again, yet I’m farther

from the destination my soul often stays

I’ve been searching for meaning

yet not even the Andes, the Eiffel Tower,

or the Jordan could fill the void or relieve the pressure of the bounty my spirit is keeping

my body can no longer focus on its next breathe

with the weight my mind buried long ago,

my spirit longs for a place that doesn’t exist in this life, a home in neverland , my Hiraeth.
