Wanderlust

Destined for cosmos while walking through mud, our minds long to float aloft while hands cling to soil and rock. Once upon a time, we sat at the sea’s edge watching waves with wonder. Now we gaze up, eyes tracing constellations as our toes are seasoned with dust. Starlit breadcrumbs beckon to earthly souls chained within flesh and hearts that beat for solid ground. Still, we yearn for the stories the stars hold.
