An Endless Succession Of Journeys

Lauren Phillips-Freeman

--

They say the journey matters more than the destination,
I thought so too once upon a time,
but that was just a lie I told myself,
a weary traveller still out on the road,
lamenting the length of the voyage,
but the truth is as soon as I reach my destination,
the journey ceases to matter.
