Set for Adventure

Sleeping bag, check,

bottled water, check,

food stored, check,

other necessities, check.

Backpack is overflowing,

prepared for emergencies

that may rise unexpectedly.

It weighs down my shoulders,

heavier than I would like it to be,

motivatation gives me the strength to carry.

I look up,

roadsigns stare

just fever meters

ahead of me.

My brain holds a map

to every destination,

I could walk each path

with my eyes closed

but my mind is hazy,

undecided

on which way

I’d like to take.
