New Direction

With the ever-approaching departure for a semester of studying abroad in London, I realize the need and desire to document my thoughts, excursions, experiences, and whatever else comes my way while overseas. Hopefully, if nothing else, this blog will serve as a reminder of everything I do and see while in London and other countries through my three months out of the states. So, from here on out whatever thoughts, fears, or expectations I have for the coming semester, I will post to this blog. Read along, ask questions, and open your mind to the life-experiences I am about to undergo.

Road

Sure you're on a road
And it's long and straight
But does it go somewhere?
Or do you follow fate?

You say what you want
And you've got it right
But is your aim set steady?
And your eye in sight?

My discontented tendencies
Will spin you around
But that's a whole lot better
Than your feet on the ground
You've got your heart still stuck
In two years ago
When I walked out of your world
And set your feet on go.

Travel

I've denied myself for nineteen years
That you can show me who I am
I've held on to all of my fears
That you can slowly break my dam

Now I find in blue, open skies
That you want to know who am I
Yet still I've failed in all my tries
And need to ask you where, what, and why?

So I take these steps one by one
And pray some day that I'll be undone
And you'll see what you've always known
That I'm not finished, I'm not grown.
