LOVERS OF LEAVING




Come, come, whoever you are.

Wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving.

It doesn't matter.

Ours is not a caravan of despair.

Come, even if you have broken your vows a thousand times.

Come, yet again, come, come.

  1. Beautiful. Sigh. Today, it IS a caravan of despair. Maybe tomorrow will be better.

    1. At the very least, tomorrow will be different. Maybe that's why I'm such a lover of leaving. It always feels like leaving on vacation, leaving everything behind, even if it's not!
