aimless

when the last time you wandered down a road?

just for the sake of it.

and have you ever been to a place,

just because it was a place.

and you have two good feet?

some people will say.

you need a plan.

but i like just thinking.

should we stay or should we go?

and in the end i was thinking about if there is nothing wrong with not knowing where i'm going.

i'm just so tired. 

lots of runners running about these days, running past everything.  

go on any train, motors, cars, bus, or plane. and you will see people who have stopped looking out of windows. 

i don't want to be one of them. 

you may say i've down these streets before, and that's okay. 

but possibility is never gone.

aimless they say is without aim. 

but i have never seen purpose stop the rain. 

on any street corner you may find the lights of your day, 

the soul of your hour, 

the dark of your minute, 

the love of your life.

or maybe not.

but you may find something you haven't already got.

of course, not all of the days can be magic days.

that stun and amaze.

but possible you may find a lonely smile, that sings and cures, 

or even better you might find yours.

that world that's in your gadget is not the world.

the world is the one that lies before your feet.

and the people that we meet.

the smells, the sounds, the sights, the skies.

tell the world that you are ready and it replies.

you see i'm not sure what the secret to happiness is.

but im pretty sure it starts..

when we go outside.
