"...I used to think I must be a genius, but nobody’s noticed. If there is such a thing as a genius…I am one, and if there isn’t, I don’t care." -John Lennon


What is it about
The way we live our lives
That starves us for something else?

Everyone tires of monotony,
Yet, the gentle lull of routine
Can be so irresistible

We laze in the safety of habit,
but it gets so heavy,
It weighs down our bones

We can no longer be inveterate!
We must break the bonds of perpetuity
We crave the unfamiliar

Yet we wait for change
to come to us,
We wait for snow
to melt into flowers,
We wait for love
to find our hearts

But I am tired of waiting
I want to go and search
I want to chase after it
Through fields and trees
Past sunsets and highways
I want to be stopped by nothing
And I want each day to end how it began –
Invigorated
