Journeys
Defined as an act of traveling from one place to another
In reality, it so much deeper than that
They can take days, months, years
Even lifetimes
Weird for such a complex word
To be explained in such simple words
How can we define a word
When we ourselves our defined by our
Journeys
They can be taken with others
Walking side by side
Sometimes carrying ones who hurt
And other time you yourself
Will be carried
Happiness and joy
When with others
Sadness and pain
When the footsteps walk the other way
Or even worse
Existing only in our hearts and souls
There are millions of reasons why we go on journeys
Choices we make ourselves
To make us stronger
A better person
Happy and sad circumstances
Forcing fates hand
Giving us millions of moments
Other times
Robbing us of memories
We will never experience
Everyone's journey is different
There is a different God's plan for everybody
We are consonantly weaving in and out of other's stories
Hopefully for the good and to inspire
Sometimes sadly to hurt and cause pain
World constantly judges all
Not realizing the demons we face
Day in and day out
Personal battles we have fought inside
Some won
Some lost
Obstacles we have overcome
Or failures so bad
We quit
Step by step
Tear by tear, smile by smile
We must go on in our journey
Seeking the true definition of journey
Change within ourselves
Without that change
You are just traveling one place to another
