A soft pulse reaches out to you, An ancient rhythm that hums your name Not loud, but steady, Like the pull of distant horizons, Like the sky stretching endlessly before you.

You answer, not to escape, But because something within you knows The world holds stories just for you, Written in the eyes of strangers, In the warmth of shared bread beneath foreign stars, Stars that belong to no one, and to everyone.

You are the child of the road, Your heart stitched together by sunsets and farewells, By the kindness of those you meet only once, Yet feel you’ve known forever.

The homes that open their doors to you Are not out of familiarity, But out of understanding The sacred language of wanderers needs no translation.

Let the road shape you gently, Not in the places you leave behind, But in the way you learn to carry the world Inside your chest, Like a secret shared between souls.

One moment, one heartbeat at a time, You become both the journey and the destination.

Take a moment before choosing what comes next.
