'i wanna go to a place'
-----------------------------------------------------------------
i want to take buses, i want to walk, i want to sit in trains, i want to travel places, i want to meet people, i want to talk to strangers, i want to discover unknowns, i want to take bold pictures, i want to sit by a foreign and strange roadside, i want to lie on an unfamilar grass field, i want to look at a different sky, i want to set my eyes further, i want to pit my heart further, i want my hands to reach further,
i want to write, write so much that i cannot stop, that the ink would become dry and my moleskine notebooks will be all out of paper;
i want to draw, draw so much i cannot stop, that i would break all my colour pencils, graphite and charcoal sticks, and my erasers would just become shreds of rubber;
i want to see, see so much i cannot stop, that my eyes would hurt from the sunlight, from the moonlight, from the pain and luxury of all sights,
i want to listen, listen so much i cannot stop, that my ears would sting from the sounds of the city, the piercing silence of the countryside, from words of hurt of love;
i want to walk, walk so much i cannot stop, that my legs would tire and i would wither and lethargy would consume me but still i cannot bring myself to slow their place;
i want to love, learn to love so much i cannot stop, foreign eyes, strangers and friends, family and relatives; that so weak my heart and that it would consume me whole
i want to disappear, disappear to a foreign land, touch the faces of children in need, thoughtfully and generously lend a helping hand, carelessly give a broad smile, sing a silly road on a crowded street, leave my footsteps everywhere.
i wanna go to a place.
anywhere,
anywherebut here,
here and now.
let me leave,
and not come back.
