Where Do You Wander?

Where do you wander?

When every second feels like an hour

When every moment is eternal

When you're lost in thoughts,

Lost in contemplation

In concern

When you burn

Where do you wander?

When you've emptied yourself of everything

When you've looked for yourself everywhere

When you can't breathe,

Can't oppose desperation

When you're inconsolable

When you're uncontrollable

I wandered the world, observed it in words

I trusted my eyes, and the whispers I heard

I dismissed what I learned,

I spent what I earned,

I lost myself

Until you returned

Where did you wander?
