NOMAD
Don’t fall in love with a nomad
He’ll surely break your heart
Don’t fall in love with a nomad
It’s doomed from the start.
Don’t fall in love with a nomad
He travels far and wide
Wrapped up in his arms
You’ll fall for his charms
He’s just in it for the ride.
He loves his freedom more than you
Don’t try and change his soul
He’ll love you up
And spit you out
And leave a gaping hole.
A bit of romance
If he gets the chance
If you are nearby
But before very long
He’ll be gone
And you are bound to cry.
To tame the wild heart
That has to be free
No woman has ever achieved
He’ll get in his car
And travel afar
Until he is relieved.
Don’t fall in love with a nomad
He travels from town to town
Don’t fall in love with a nomad
He’ll never settle down.

Great poem, and picture to go with it – it stirs the wanderlust heart 🙂 I very much feel the pull of a nomadic life, but haven’t followed it. It’s probably more a symptom/expression of something than a true desire.

Thanks Katrina. Me too! I’m itching to travel again! Symptom of something? I’m curious about that …

Well, I haven’t explored what it means, but seeing as I haven’t embraced the nomadic life, I’m taking it that the pull towards it is not actually about wanting a nomadic life in reality. It may be about desiring to discover aspects of myself which I haven’t been game to do, maybe?
